always freaking out? venting/question

Hi, I'm a ftm and 15w+5 days and I've been sick with an upper respiratory infection for 9 days.  (Finally getting over it) All I have left is a cough but it worries me every time I do.  My mother in law almost lost my husbands younger brother due to him detaching from the uterus because of her chronic coughing.. so every time I feel cramping or pressure I freak out even though I know it's normal. It's like I can't help it. Any one else do this?

I have a weird reaction to nausea it makes me cough. So in my 1st trimester and the beginning of my 2nd I coughed all the time non stop. I started bleeding and cramping and became worried so I went to the doctor and expressed my concern. The baby was fine. She said coughing will not effect the baby. If you think about it our bodies go through the same stress when throwing up a lot from morning sickness. I wouldn't worry.
