Default Car is bogging? Help!

So I've started to notice this problem I've been having more and more. I think the problem is growing. That is why. When I am driving like in 5th gear just crusing under 3k rpm I feel the car kinda softly pull back like the wind is really pushing infront of me or like i just tapped on the break lightly for a quick second and let go (but i'm not). At first it was only 5th gear but now its moving down on gears. Now its happening 4th and 3rd. After the car is completely warmed up for reals, it doesn't do it anymore. I don't think its my clutch because i'm barely putting anypressure on the gas peddle and when I drive hard, the clutch always grabs perfect. Kinda feels like i'm bogging for a quick second, like the car just cough LOL. It only happens every so often and one time while i'm driving a session at a time. Any ideas? Maybe some maintenence? What should I change? Are my brakes binding? I have no lights lited up on the dash so i dunno. Help a fellow luder out! Thanks

P.S. Car only has 47k on it.

First, try to title the post better, more detail. You'll get more responses with more detail.

Second, try tune up. Plugs, wires, filters, etc. If you have no CEL that's pretty much where to start. Then check your EGR system.

No i just meant in the title. many people won't read one titled "HELP!!" or whatever.

there are write ups on here for the EGR system inspection and cleaning. I would take pics for you, but i'm at work till dark. search for EGR.
