Can I write off short-term health insurance premiums?

My husband changed jobs and his employer offered us COBRA insurance.  The premiums were very high so we opted to purchase a 3-month short-term private health insurance policy to bridge the gap between his prior coverage and his new coverage with his new employer.  I'll note that I am self-employed.  Can we write off these premiums and if so, where do I correctly post them?
