"You are not leaving your house" but doesn't it matter that your baby may be affected if you don't get some help.? If you are coughing that hard you could start coughing up blood and then you'll really have a problem.
Take something for the cough, anything along these lines that you have in the house. Slowly suck on a piece of peppermint candy; or two drops of peppermint oil in a Tbsp. of honey; or honey with lemon juice; or table or cooking syrup; or 1 tsp. Bourbon mixed with 1 Tbsp. of honey. Either of these things will stick to your throat and calm your cough reflexes. DON'T drink anything immediately after taking this because you want it to stay in your throat for as long as possible. None of it will injure your baby.
You didn't say if you have a cold, the flu, or a lung disease, but if the phlegm is green or grayish, you have a serious problem and need to get someone to drive you to the ER now.
Your pain could be caused from the coughing, from pneumonia, or from pleurisy or lung disease. Whatever it is, I would consider it serious enough to get help.Health Question & Answer
