I don't know if I'm just being weird, or overly paranoid. I try to eat well, rest lots and sleep on my left side. But I can't help feeling I'm damaging my baby
I get the bus to work and can't sit comfortably. If I bend to put my socks on, my bump hurts - have I squished him? If I spend ages on my feet, my bump aches. I'm a teacher and lost my temper with a student and shouted - baby went crazy super active for about an hour. I keep sleeping on my back as my back aches. I sometimes binge on junk food like pizza. I'm even worrying about curling up and him getting squashed.
Oh my God, I'm actually going mad. Please tell me I'm not damaging my baby?! It's so hard. I'm 31 weeks and not finishing work til 37 wks, and all I want to do is lie on my left side on the sofa and eat healthy food for the rest of my pregnancy!
