From Diary of a pregnant woman - Week 29

Week 29

Early in the morning, the sun had just started to peek.  As my conscience started to awake, the pain on left side started to be more prominent. I had to turn my side. The sleeping position on left side started to get my left side sore.

I turned towards right, and as I did, I felt a wiggly movement as if I squared a small feet or hand under my stomach.  Immediately I became straight, pulling my weight away. The act awakened me completely. And I realized it’s not under but inside my stomach.

It’s a wonderful feeling when the little hands and legs tickle in your tummy.  However the outside world is completely ignorant about the storm that’s happening in the ammonotic fluid due to all the jumps and somersaults.  And the cunning little one deceived me every time I tried to make someone feel that heavenly movement. 

‘Is it just for me??’  I ask….. and I get no reply.

Every night I sleep, pokes me on the side of the tummy that press against the bed, making me puzzled ‘Are you hurt??’  But no reply.

But when all stops for a while like a quiet tummy, I feel sad as if I need to feel some movement all the time to assure my baby is all fine.

Thousand worries cross my head but that one wobble movement keeps it aside. Like telling me I am all fine.

With passing days, those movements are becoming prominent and stong.
