BIRTHDAY GROWTH SPURT

I celebrated my 33rd birthday on the 9th April and it was a slight change from the last few, cocktails, dancing and wild antics were swapped for dinner, tea and cake. Once i give birth i will celebrate this belated birthday with a glass / bottle of fizz. I have been very lucky and have enjoyed the last 27 weeks of pregnancy, Monday 3rd March bought some new and uncomfortable feelings. Stretching /aching pains in my stomach and a heavy feeling in my lower region had me a little worried, i called the midwife who reassured me all sounded normal and to update my midwife on my next appointment. On Wednesday 5th March I visited the midwife, after measuring my bump she informed me that the baby had put on a growth spurt in the last 3 weeks. I’m 5ft 7 and my husband is 6ft so I’m sure there will be more of these over the next 12 weeks. I feel fine now although I think who ever said the second trimester was the honeymoon stage was right and I think i may have kissed goodbye to that….
