32 weeks: bumpometer

It certainly has been a rough start to our 32 weeks with little bump Constant, after picking up a bug Friday morning and being ill all weekend – which meant that I didn’t eat all weekend and had an unhappy bump, I am glad to say that we are all better now.

Because I was 32 weeks pregnant and caught a sickness bug, I did panic quite a bit! I was worried that the baby would be hurt because of the actions of being sick and also that the bump would not get any nutrition because I wasn’t eating or keeping down anything, even water. The midwives told me to go into hospital if I didn’t start to keep down water, because they will want to check on me and make sure I am not dehydrated. Thankfully from Saturday evening, I managed to start drinking water and nibbling on food again, then Sunday I woke up with an appetite. It felt so good to actually wake up with an appetite, especially as I had missed out on some yummy meals cooked by Hubby.

Bump movements did slow down over Saturday afternoon/evening, but they soon picked up on Sunday morning again, and now we are all back to normal. So thankfully we are all OK; we are seeing the midwife this week though instead of week 34, I guess they want to make sure that we “are” OK?
