Coughing

[ssimms]

I've noticed that I have been coughing now that I'm pregnant. Is this normal or should I be worried?

Anddd this post is from two years ago. Oh my gosh, I can't believe I just noticed that. Can a mod delete my comment? I don't want to be a part of dead thread ressurection.

I'm glad someone else posted this! I'm 37 weeks and this has happened to me all pregnancy! No reason for it, I'll just randomly start coughing. It usually happens when I lay down.

I've had the same thing! I'm twelve weeks and I'm not sick at all, I just have a random cough. I was worried it was dangerous for the baby, but any research I've done says the baby is fine. I don't understand the cough, but as long as baby is alright, I guess I'll just put up with it and ask about it at my next ob appt. Sorry to not have an actual answer, but I hope it helps to know you're not alone!

Lol it's weird and I don't feel sick or anything I just cough occasionally.

I think maybe our ammune systems lower when we first become preggo. When I first got pregnant I got strep throat then I got a cold and was sick for so long. But haven't been sick since haha
