Pulled a muscle :-(

Since Friday, I have been feeling a sharp pain on my left oblique muscle. It hurt to even touch it. I was close to tears when Daddy Jarbs felt it and touched the sore spot. It felt really uncomfortable to bend or move on my left side :-(. I just confirmed with my doctor today that I may have pulled a muscle!! I told her that the only thing I did was sneezed real hard and then after that I started feeling the pain. The doctor explained that there are lots of things going on in my abdomen area. When I sneezed, the muscles contract which resulted in the pulled muscle :-(. It's so ironic that I've been exercising since day 1 of this pregnancy and never been injured but I get a pulled muscle just from sneezing!! Doc said I cannot do anything but wait for the muscle to heal itself. She also said not to put any hot compress on the belly. In the meantime, I need to rest and not do any strenuous activities :-(. On the upside, Baby Jarbs is still moving a lot so she's fine :-). I am glad I only have less than 4 weeks to go!
