i have a bad cough since few days and har baar i cough hard i feel pressure in my pet and get scared. im 20 weeks. can all this coughing affect the baby or im just overthinking? anyone else faced this?
Don't worry, coughing itself won't hurt your baby at all because the amniotic sac acts like an amazing shock absorber. But if the cough is very severe or accompanied by a fever, please see your gynac to get a safe cough syrup prescribed.
Haan, bilkul safe hai, baby bilkul secure rehta hai andar. Par agar cough bahut zyada ho raha hai toh khud se koi dawai mat lena na. Gynac se pooch kar hi cough syrup ya jo bhi ho, lena.
Your baby is perfectly safe inside the womb, so coughing won't harm them. However, persistent coughing can strain your abdominal muscles. If it doesn't get better in two days, just visit your doctor instead of letting it drag on.
I have been coughing like crazy since yesterday and I was so scared it might pressure the baby! Glad to know the baby is safe. Are you having any chest pain with it, or is it just dry cough?
Yes, coughing is completely safe for the baby, they are well protected inside. I had a terrible cough in my second trimester, but simple home remedies like warm ginger-honey water helped me a lot. Just make sure to consult your doctor if it doesn't clear up in a few days.
I used to panic and hold my tummy every time I coughed, fearing it would affect the baby. The baby is safe, but please don't take any self-prescribed medicines for relief. Keep yourself hydrated and talk to your doctor if you feel any discomfort.
