Bit of a scare earlier on…. Normally, I wouldn’t think “kick me, kick me” – but that was exactly what was going on in my mind!
On a normal day, our little Chloe would be moving constantly, kicking and proding me… Whether it be morning, afternoon or bedtime – her general habit is to constantly have some sort of movement… Or atleast, I can feel her move – when I move…. Me eating is a definite trigger for her to move!
I must admit I didn’t really notice little Chloe this evening because I was too busy playing monopoly with Hupps and frens… and I was well hyper… However, when the game finished, the frens left and the room was quiet – I noticed that I didn’t seem to be able to “feel” Chloe move!!
In our antenatal classes, we were told to start counting the number of kicks throughout the day – this should equate to approx 10… if we didn’t feel the kicks we could use our hands and gently rock/move the bump side to side… Well, I started to gently move my bump side to side… No movement from Chloe (normally this would work if she was asleep, cos the movement would make her stir/turn)…. So, I start to rock my tummy with more force! Still no movement – even Hupps was getting a little anxious!!! I then start to bounce up and down on my chair…. Still no movement!!
Oh my, oh my… Huppy then came over – used his two hands and then shook my tummy (relatively gently ofcos!) and then “Thump”!!! A good whack from Chloe… Scare over!!!
