Does Tightness In Chest From A Bout Of Cold During Pregnancy Need Medical Attention?

I am 11 weeks pregnant and have been fighting a cold for the past 5 days. It started with just a sore throat and nasal congestion but last night I started having slight chest pressure, like I have a small weight resting on my chest. Should I see a doctor or just wait the cold out?
