I have had a recent URTI / virus so the coughing has caused some REALLY bad rib pain with the head wedged under there (DH thinks I may have fractured one with the pain and the need to splint my side when I cough !!!) Breathing is OK though. He is sitting quite low really so I have been lucky. No pelvic pain and no breathing problems, just the ribs. Although this afternoon ALLLLLL of the movement is on the left side with the feet grating past my ribs. Maybe he is trying to grab onto something to get some traction
