After spending the in conclusion calendar week worrying myself sick that I bring somehow suffocated the babe yesteryear the squashed positions I sit down too slumber inwards (plus existence paranoid close my tum fatty squashing bubba), I was sooooooooooo relieved to larn the endangerment to listen the heartbeat today.

The midwife did the commons checks (blood pressure, urine, checked my notes etc) earlier getting me to lay downward too bring that lovely, cold gunk applied to the bottom of my tummy.

For close a infinitesimal she searched too searched close my groin for a heartbeat. The longer it took, the to a greater extent than nervous I got, too at 1 quest I heard a beat, but she told me that was my ain heartbeat.




Then subsequently a chip to a greater extent than prodding too poking too a few deep, anxious breaths from me, nosotros finally heard a actually fast heartbeat, that kept going tranquility because bubba was swimming all over the place!
After a few attempts, nosotros got to listen a proficient few seconds of it, too the midwife reassured us that it was a nice, potent beat.


There are no to a greater extent than midwife appointments right away until calendar week 25 apparently, too my midwife announced she is also upward the duff, too volition live on on motherhood run out 2 months earlier I laissez passer on nascency :(


She is a lovely midwife, too thence it is a shame that I volition lose her at the most of import business office of my pregnancy, but it is also prissy to listen her ain experiences, equally this is her real kickoff nestling too, too she looked only equally scared equally me!
