I have been sick and coughing a lot. Well I am 35 weeks and for a few days when I cough I feel a burning pain around the middle of my ribs like I pulled a muscle. Well just now when I coughed I felt a new one on the bottom left of my belly. They take my breath away. Is this normal since I have been coughing a lot?

I'm 35 weeks too! I've been sick as well, and the coughing and sneezing hurts SO MUCH! It really feels like it's pulling something huh? I know, I totally know! As far as the coughing goes, I've been sucking on some cough drops so that I don't cough as much anymore, and so far it's helped. The congestion, I've taken care of that by taking warm showers with those 'shower soother' tablets-try them, they are fantastic!
The pains go away eventually, but for the meantime, I would just gently massage the area that feels tight, and of course definitely try to prevent any more coughing by sucking on some cough drops or something. Good luck!
