Pulled what feels like every muscle on my back and around the front under my ribs. Really, really painful, especially when driving or getting up or down into a chair. Since there are few women on the forum I feel safe to say, this IS more painful than contractions......I think ;) Wish I could say it was whilst doing something super "manly" like lifting an engine, wrestling a bear or chopping down a tree but no.......a combined cough and sneeze FFS!
the slow decline into ageing decrepitness has started I fear :(

Hope it's nothing too serious, get checked over by a physio. I taught self defence for 20years then practically overnight my body gave up. It all started with snapping my archilles and then having a transplant. Eventually everything catches up so it's been yoga for now the last few years, so you're not alone.

It starts slow but speeds up very quickly. Just look at Conaero! :D
