    It's possible you could pull a muscle. I remember my dad sneezed in an awkward position trying to get his hanky out his pocket and he pulled a muscle near his ribs LOL. Those sneezes can be pretty powerful!

    Hope it feels better soon *hug*

    I am 14 weeks and since 4 weeks, whenever I sneeze, I feel like I have ripped my gut open...so probably not a tear, but maybe a strain, as mentioned above.

    I think if you tore your stomach muscle you would be in a hell of alot of pain. I think you have just pulled a muscle. I did that once doing a cartwheel when i was 14 i could barely move for a few weeks.
