If there’s one thing I’ve learnt since being pregnant, it’s
that however niche your question about your pregnancy, another mother-to-be
will have already asked it. I’ve searched dozens of increasingly obscure
questions and am yet to come up blanks. Granted, most of the resulting pages
are chatroom/comment threads without actual answers to the question you’re
searching, but in terms of not feeling alone,
it’s ace.
‘Is it safe to use bouncy castle while pregnant?’
-
I’m going to a birthday BBQ with one and I
REALLY don’t want to miss out. Answer: no medical advice, but try not to fall
over.
‘Being punched in the stomach
in early pregnancy’
-
Don’t panic, I’m not being abused or carelessly
involving myself in bar brawls, but my cat jumped onto me really hard (it was
more of a pounce than a jump, really) and I thought the cat-pounce search was a
little too niche. Answer: the little babe is well protected in there. Being
punched is best avoided (bad Ziggy Cat) but you should be OK.
‘Can I eat cheesecake while
pregnant?’
-
Duh. Answer: if it’s baked.
‘Can I play tennis pregnant?’
-
Please say no, please say no, please say no.
Answer: New sports are best avoided. What. A. Shame.
‘Normal weight gain in
pregnancy’
-
Because WHOA I got heavy. Answer: it varies from
person to person but I should be ok.
‘Sweat pregnancy’
-
TMI? Sorry but going through a second
adolescence here. Answer: yes, it can increase. Super.
