You think that’s bad?

I’m not trying to crap on your post, but I have my own set of issues….

Two weeks ago (give or take) I had a terrible cold that would not go away. The worst of it was the gunk in my lungs that I kept coughing up which would set off a gag reflex. Very pretty…

Anyway, I read somewhere that coughing can make you go into labor so I was very paranoid but sometimes I just couldn’t help it and the coughing was quite violent.

A few days ago I started getting this sharp pain in my ribs when I coughed that turned into a sharp pain in my ribs when I simply moved. Someone told me I may have cracked a rib from coughing.

Great.

Like labor isn’t bad enough on it’s own.

Today it still hurts but mainly if I cough or laugh or sneeze (I may never sneeze again after the pain I just inflicted upon myself). It does hurt when I move but more of a throb than the sharp pain I was getting before. I have a doctors appointment this afternoon, but seriously I doubt they can do anything for me even if it is a broken rib. The fun part of pregnancy is that I won’t get any happy drugs to make it feel better either.

Like I don’t have enough on my plate….

Hmmm….I don’t have cool wrestler names for my affliction….

    I figured you would give me a hard time about a 1950′s reference and my age. You’re slipping!
