WEBVTT - Week 6: Is It A Baby Bump Or Am I Just Bloated?

0:00:11.149 --> 0:00:15.349
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to a Muma Mia podcast. Mom and Maya

0:00:15.429 --> 0:00:18.669
<v Speaker 1>acknowledges the traditional owners of land and waters that this

0:00:18.709 --> 0:00:20.029
<v Speaker 1>podcast is recorded on.

0:00:21.389 --> 0:00:23.509
<v Speaker 2>I am pregnanted.

0:00:27.429 --> 0:00:30.509
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to Hello Bump. We're making pregnancy less overwhelming and

0:00:30.629 --> 0:00:34.309
<v Speaker 1>more manageable. I'm gracery, very pregnant for the very first time,

0:00:34.349 --> 0:00:36.629
<v Speaker 1>and I can no longer open my fridge without drive reaching.

0:00:36.749 --> 0:00:38.749
<v Speaker 2>And I'm Miana Pittman. I'm a former Olympian, I'm a

0:00:38.789 --> 0:00:40.869
<v Speaker 2>mother of six babies, and I'm training to be an

0:00:40.909 --> 0:00:42.309
<v Speaker 2>obstitrician and a gynocologist.

0:00:42.389 --> 0:00:44.549
<v Speaker 1>Each episode, Jana and I will be holding your hand

0:00:44.589 --> 0:00:47.109
<v Speaker 1>week by week through the mysterious, perplexing and sometimes it's

0:00:47.109 --> 0:00:52.949
<v Speaker 1>a very weird miracle that is pregnancy week six. Yanna,

0:00:53.189 --> 0:00:56.189
<v Speaker 1>how big is our baby? Our baby? I have your

0:00:56.189 --> 0:00:58.189
<v Speaker 1>baby seven to be good, I have six been.

0:00:58.229 --> 0:01:01.109
<v Speaker 2>It's now about the size of a lentil seed.

0:01:01.389 --> 0:01:03.869
<v Speaker 1>See this is where it starts to contextualize, doesn't it

0:01:03.869 --> 0:01:05.309
<v Speaker 1>a lentil seed? A lady bug?

0:01:05.429 --> 0:01:08.469
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well let's go factual four to six millimeters. So

0:01:08.509 --> 0:01:10.709
<v Speaker 2>it's made a massive big jumps from las week. It's

0:01:10.949 --> 0:01:12.709
<v Speaker 2>it's almost a huge, but it's a huge compared to

0:01:12.789 --> 0:01:14.149
<v Speaker 2>last week when it was only a millimeter.

0:01:14.389 --> 0:01:17.909
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it feels like it's an object now, yes, absolutely

0:01:17.949 --> 0:01:19.629
<v Speaker 1>not just the clump of cells exactly.

0:01:19.709 --> 0:01:22.029
<v Speaker 2>And if you had an early ultrasound you would now

0:01:22.069 --> 0:01:24.109
<v Speaker 2>probably see a little thing in there, maybe not a heart,

0:01:24.149 --> 0:01:26.389
<v Speaker 2>but yet hopefully but maybe not again. I don't want

0:01:26.389 --> 0:01:28.709
<v Speaker 2>you to have it. We're still waking ladies. Another week please,

0:01:29.429 --> 0:01:30.949
<v Speaker 2>but yes, it is growing nicely.

0:01:31.149 --> 0:01:33.189
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you can book it, but not bookase, but for

0:01:33.349 --> 0:01:37.309
<v Speaker 1>week seven, thank you. I love it. And what's happening

0:01:37.349 --> 0:01:38.749
<v Speaker 1>with the baby? How are they developing?

0:01:38.949 --> 0:01:40.509
<v Speaker 2>And as we've kind of just touched on, the biggest

0:01:40.509 --> 0:01:42.509
<v Speaker 2>thing is it's heart starting to beat, which I think

0:01:42.549 --> 0:01:44.949
<v Speaker 2>is a massive milestoning pregnancy like that is to me

0:01:45.069 --> 0:01:47.429
<v Speaker 2>makes it it's real, the little heart beating in there.

0:01:47.749 --> 0:01:50.109
<v Speaker 2>The other olgans are also continuing to grow, including the

0:01:50.189 --> 0:01:52.709
<v Speaker 2>digestive system, which is really weird to think, and it's

0:01:52.709 --> 0:01:55.149
<v Speaker 2>respiratory system, so how it's going to breathe. And there

0:01:55.229 --> 0:01:57.349
<v Speaker 2>might even be some facial features that are starting. We

0:01:57.389 --> 0:01:59.229
<v Speaker 2>can't see them on ultrasound, but the things like the

0:01:59.229 --> 0:02:01.109
<v Speaker 2>eyes and ears, and they starting the most weird and

0:02:01.149 --> 0:02:03.309
<v Speaker 2>wonderful places. They actually start on the complete outside of

0:02:03.349 --> 0:02:05.429
<v Speaker 2>the baby's head and then the eventually they'll move around

0:02:05.709 --> 0:02:06.509
<v Speaker 2>invert in woods.

0:02:06.549 --> 0:02:09.309
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, exactly, it's quite a weird. My app talks about

0:02:09.309 --> 0:02:12.389
<v Speaker 1>it's grown its nostrils, but doesn't have its nose. It's

0:02:12.429 --> 0:02:15.589
<v Speaker 1>just holes, which again makes it feel like elucision. Absolutely,

0:02:15.629 --> 0:02:20.109
<v Speaker 1>I can't deny that. Unfortunately, what happened, what's happening to me,

0:02:20.389 --> 0:02:22.429
<v Speaker 1>and what's happening with us, what's happening with our body?

0:02:23.109 --> 0:02:25.389
<v Speaker 2>Increasing from last week more and more and more and

0:02:25.429 --> 0:02:28.149
<v Speaker 2>more nauseous, and guys, at six weeks, it's gonna get worse,

0:02:28.309 --> 0:02:30.949
<v Speaker 2>So we peek around the nine to ten week mark

0:02:30.989 --> 0:02:34.589
<v Speaker 2>and then hopefully will get better. Continued fatigue. I actually

0:02:34.629 --> 0:02:36.949
<v Speaker 2>found this week the most fatiguing, and I felt like

0:02:36.989 --> 0:02:40.069
<v Speaker 2>it really feels like bad jet lag and you cannot

0:02:40.069 --> 0:02:42.389
<v Speaker 2>get off the couch. And interestingly, for some women it's

0:02:42.429 --> 0:02:44.189
<v Speaker 2>worse in your first pregnancy and it gets a little better,

0:02:44.229 --> 0:02:46.229
<v Speaker 2>and I found that. I found my first pregnancy was

0:02:46.269 --> 0:02:47.389
<v Speaker 2>not for six I was in the middle of my

0:02:47.389 --> 0:02:50.669
<v Speaker 2>Olympic career and couldn't train, couldn't do anything. Whereas I

0:02:50.669 --> 0:02:53.029
<v Speaker 2>had my sort of subsequent pregnancies, I found a little easier,

0:02:53.069 --> 0:02:54.989
<v Speaker 2>so hang in there. If it's really tough, try and

0:02:55.069 --> 0:02:56.629
<v Speaker 2>outsource at this point, like you know, get someone to

0:02:56.629 --> 0:02:58.349
<v Speaker 2>come and help you, because you really need that sleep.

0:02:58.389 --> 0:03:00.989
<v Speaker 2>You know, you are growing a whole human inside, and

0:03:01.069 --> 0:03:04.269
<v Speaker 2>expect some moodswings. There is definitely some ups and downs

0:03:04.309 --> 0:03:06.629
<v Speaker 2>going on this week. Some tears are not unusual.

0:03:06.709 --> 0:03:08.909
<v Speaker 1>Let's say at week six, that was the last point

0:03:08.949 --> 0:03:11.869
<v Speaker 1>I could go into my kitchen just so hyper aware

0:03:11.869 --> 0:03:13.349
<v Speaker 1>of the smells. And I think for me, I don't

0:03:13.349 --> 0:03:15.509
<v Speaker 1>know if I was jet lagged feeling, but I definitely

0:03:15.589 --> 0:03:18.989
<v Speaker 1>the hangover feeling was just all through the day, and

0:03:19.029 --> 0:03:22.189
<v Speaker 1>then the nausea was definitely ramping up. But everything, as

0:03:22.189 --> 0:03:24.389
<v Speaker 1>you've said, was really getting a lot more intense.

0:03:24.469 --> 0:03:26.069
<v Speaker 2>And I think it's also important to heart that everyone's

0:03:26.069 --> 0:03:28.549
<v Speaker 2>symptoms are different, So don't freak out if you don't

0:03:28.589 --> 0:03:30.589
<v Speaker 2>have any symptoms, Like someone, oh my god, it mustn't

0:03:30.589 --> 0:03:31.709
<v Speaker 2>be real. It's not happening. I need to go and

0:03:31.749 --> 0:03:35.069
<v Speaker 2>see my doctor really quickly. Someone won just get lucky.

0:03:35.749 --> 0:03:37.829
<v Speaker 2>They just get lucky and they don't have much And

0:03:37.869 --> 0:03:39.829
<v Speaker 2>you know, and if you're expecting multiples, which means twins

0:03:39.869 --> 0:03:42.269
<v Speaker 2>or more babies, sometimes your symptoms are going to be worse,

0:03:42.749 --> 0:03:44.549
<v Speaker 2>So I think it's again no comparisons.

0:03:44.589 --> 0:03:46.269
<v Speaker 1>That's a really good point. There's a woman, one of

0:03:46.269 --> 0:03:47.909
<v Speaker 1>the women here in their Mum and me are office.

0:03:47.949 --> 0:03:49.309
<v Speaker 1>She was like, I was one of those lucky ones,

0:03:49.429 --> 0:03:51.189
<v Speaker 1>never had no orders. I never had anything, but I

0:03:51.189 --> 0:03:52.829
<v Speaker 1>had a baby who didn't sleep. So it gets you

0:03:52.909 --> 0:03:54.149
<v Speaker 1>any I've.

0:03:53.989 --> 0:03:55.949
<v Speaker 2>Had all of that, to be honest, Sometimes you get

0:03:55.949 --> 0:03:57.709
<v Speaker 2>both is this normal?

0:03:57.829 --> 0:04:00.349
<v Speaker 1>Is normal? Is it normal? I have a question about

0:04:00.509 --> 0:04:03.549
<v Speaker 1>I still have period cramps at this point.

0:04:04.149 --> 0:04:06.389
<v Speaker 2>It's your use for us getting used to accommodating a

0:04:06.429 --> 0:04:09.269
<v Speaker 2>growing pregnancy. So you can imagine that it's especially if

0:04:09.309 --> 0:04:12.469
<v Speaker 2>it's your first time. You haven't had that expanding little

0:04:12.549 --> 0:04:14.949
<v Speaker 2>thing inside stretching the walls or the muscles of the

0:04:15.029 --> 0:04:18.069
<v Speaker 2>uterus and the surrounding ligaments outside the uterus that are

0:04:18.149 --> 0:04:20.429
<v Speaker 2>slowly going to expand up. So we get a lot

0:04:20.469 --> 0:04:22.749
<v Speaker 2>of what's called round ligament pain. Not normally around the

0:04:22.749 --> 0:04:24.669
<v Speaker 2>six weeks. I mean some women do, but it's more

0:04:24.749 --> 0:04:26.669
<v Speaker 2>often a little bit later in pregnancy. But yes, all

0:04:26.669 --> 0:04:28.749
<v Speaker 2>these sort of aches and pains and things. Again, changes

0:04:28.789 --> 0:04:31.349
<v Speaker 2>in hormone levels. Sometimes there's even the bit of fluid

0:04:31.389 --> 0:04:33.269
<v Speaker 2>in the pelvis and things that can actually cause from

0:04:33.309 --> 0:04:35.629
<v Speaker 2>the ovulatary syst so where you actually ovulated, from which

0:04:35.629 --> 0:04:38.149
<v Speaker 2>it starts to produce progesterones to support the pregnancy. We

0:04:38.229 --> 0:04:39.869
<v Speaker 2>call it the corpus lutium if you want to be

0:04:39.909 --> 0:04:42.429
<v Speaker 2>really medical about it, but can also leak fluid and

0:04:42.469 --> 0:04:45.109
<v Speaker 2>irritate the abdomen. So it's also important to think though,

0:04:45.149 --> 0:04:48.229
<v Speaker 2>if you are having pain, not just cramps, it is

0:04:48.389 --> 0:04:50.109
<v Speaker 2>probably better to keep a close eye on it. And

0:04:50.149 --> 0:04:52.589
<v Speaker 2>if you're concerned about it, just call someone, call your

0:04:52.629 --> 0:04:54.909
<v Speaker 2>midwife or your GP to have a discussion about it.

0:04:54.949 --> 0:04:58.589
<v Speaker 1>And what about bloating? Is that okay, so it's still bloat,

0:04:58.629 --> 0:05:00.469
<v Speaker 1>it's not pregnancy, but it's not pregnancy.

0:05:00.989 --> 0:05:03.669
<v Speaker 2>I'd love to be but no, at six weeks you'd

0:05:03.709 --> 0:05:06.909
<v Speaker 2>be really unlikely. In fact, it's impossible. Let's just go there.

0:05:07.749 --> 0:05:12.989
<v Speaker 1>It's just blown or constipation. Yeah, me too, So that

0:05:13.829 --> 0:05:16.389
<v Speaker 1>gets worse and worse. I thought I was having round

0:05:16.429 --> 0:05:19.509
<v Speaker 1>ligament pains and my midwife was just like, no, that's

0:05:19.589 --> 0:05:21.749
<v Speaker 1>just your bounds just working really slowly.

0:05:21.869 --> 0:05:24.549
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, transition slows down unfortunately because of progesterone, one of

0:05:24.589 --> 0:05:25.829
<v Speaker 2>the main hormones of pregnancy.

0:05:26.509 --> 0:05:29.629
<v Speaker 1>But it's not as gratifying and there's no schedule anymore.

0:05:29.709 --> 0:05:31.189
<v Speaker 1>No fluid, keep you fluid up.

0:05:31.189 --> 0:05:32.869
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I think there's one of the big key messages

0:05:32.909 --> 0:05:35.349
<v Speaker 2>there to try and keep those bowers a bit more regular.

0:05:40.229 --> 0:05:41.709
<v Speaker 1>And what are some good things to do? What's on

0:05:41.749 --> 0:05:42.869
<v Speaker 1>our to do list this week?

0:05:43.589 --> 0:05:46.189
<v Speaker 2>Well, as you know, we talked about booking your ultrasound.

0:05:46.229 --> 0:05:48.389
<v Speaker 2>I think it's pretty important. This time in pregnancy is

0:05:48.389 --> 0:05:49.589
<v Speaker 2>a little hard because you're just kind of in the

0:05:49.589 --> 0:05:51.349
<v Speaker 2>waiting game. So you've got lots of things coming up

0:05:51.349 --> 0:05:53.189
<v Speaker 2>in the future that you need to do. But at

0:05:53.189 --> 0:05:54.349
<v Speaker 2>this point, you know what, I think you need to

0:05:54.349 --> 0:05:56.029
<v Speaker 2>think really closely. You kind of touched on it with

0:05:56.069 --> 0:05:57.349
<v Speaker 2>the abdominal cramps and things.

0:05:57.589 --> 0:05:58.269
<v Speaker 1>If you bleed.

0:05:58.709 --> 0:06:01.309
<v Speaker 2>Now, twenty to forty percent of women will bleed in pregnancy,

0:06:01.349 --> 0:06:03.149
<v Speaker 2>particularly in the first tromester, and that's quite a lot,

0:06:03.189 --> 0:06:04.989
<v Speaker 2>and it's not always a concern. It could be still

0:06:04.989 --> 0:06:08.189
<v Speaker 2>implantation bleeding. It could be sometimes we get what's called

0:06:08.189 --> 0:06:10.749
<v Speaker 2>a subcoreonic chemotoma, which is it's big words of guys,

0:06:10.789 --> 0:06:12.669
<v Speaker 2>but it's just a bit of like a bruise around

0:06:12.749 --> 0:06:15.429
<v Speaker 2>where the baby is, around the amigniotic sack. Most of

0:06:15.429 --> 0:06:17.229
<v Speaker 2>the time they resolve. So even if you see that

0:06:17.229 --> 0:06:19.789
<v Speaker 2>on your ultrasound next week, ninety percent of the time

0:06:19.789 --> 0:06:20.309
<v Speaker 2>it goes away.

0:06:20.509 --> 0:06:22.149
<v Speaker 1>What's the best thing to do in that case? If

0:06:22.189 --> 0:06:24.229
<v Speaker 1>you do notice that you're spotting, is it? Are you

0:06:24.309 --> 0:06:26.069
<v Speaker 1>at the level of we go to hospital or you

0:06:26.109 --> 0:06:27.469
<v Speaker 1>book a GP appointment?

0:06:27.669 --> 0:06:30.149
<v Speaker 2>Every woman's individual. I've been down to d many, many,

0:06:30.149 --> 0:06:32.229
<v Speaker 2>many times for someone spotting in pregnancy because there's a

0:06:32.229 --> 0:06:35.589
<v Speaker 2>lot of anxiety and really wanting the pregnancy for me.

0:06:36.109 --> 0:06:38.469
<v Speaker 2>You cannot do anything right now, guys, So if you

0:06:38.509 --> 0:06:40.989
<v Speaker 2>are bleeding in early pregnancy, our concern is if you're

0:06:40.989 --> 0:06:42.749
<v Speaker 2>bleeding heavily enough that we need to monitor you from

0:06:42.749 --> 0:06:45.549
<v Speaker 2>a blood loss perspective. So I think GPS the right

0:06:45.549 --> 0:06:47.149
<v Speaker 2>place you don't want to sit in a NED for

0:06:47.149 --> 0:06:49.189
<v Speaker 2>four or five hours waiting to be seen by one

0:06:49.229 --> 0:06:52.229
<v Speaker 2>of us. Was in guyning doctors. So if your GP's concerned,

0:06:52.229 --> 0:06:54.229
<v Speaker 2>they'll send you in. We often have what's called an

0:06:54.269 --> 0:06:56.909
<v Speaker 2>early pregnancy Assessment clinic. Most public hospitals have one, so

0:06:56.909 --> 0:06:58.789
<v Speaker 2>if you concerned, your GP can refer you to see

0:06:58.789 --> 0:07:00.029
<v Speaker 2>one of the doctors. But at least it means you

0:07:00.029 --> 0:07:02.509
<v Speaker 2>have an allocated appointment to see someone roughly within an

0:07:02.509 --> 0:07:04.149
<v Speaker 2>hour of getting there rather than four or five in

0:07:04.189 --> 0:07:06.989
<v Speaker 2>a ned. But the biggest thing there is if you

0:07:07.109 --> 0:07:10.469
<v Speaker 2>haven't yet got a diagnosed pregnancy on ultrasound and you

0:07:10.549 --> 0:07:13.309
<v Speaker 2>have pain and cramping. Unfortunately, we have to raise that

0:07:13.349 --> 0:07:15.869
<v Speaker 2>not all pregnancies end up in the uterus. Sometimes pregnancies

0:07:15.869 --> 0:07:17.869
<v Speaker 2>can unfortunately end up in the filopian tubes, the ovaries,

0:07:17.909 --> 0:07:20.069
<v Speaker 2>and even the abdomen or your cervix. They're called it

0:07:20.149 --> 0:07:23.509
<v Speaker 2>topic pregnancies. So if pain and bleeding comes together and

0:07:23.549 --> 0:07:26.429
<v Speaker 2>you haven't confirmed the pregnancies inside the uterus, that is

0:07:26.429 --> 0:07:28.309
<v Speaker 2>a time it's an ed visit straight away.

0:07:28.469 --> 0:07:30.629
<v Speaker 1>If we're you're having our dating scan, it's seven weeks.

0:07:30.709 --> 0:07:33.389
<v Speaker 1>But if you do have an ectopic pregnancy, is it

0:07:34.149 --> 0:07:36.909
<v Speaker 1>at risk of rupturing before that seven weeks before they

0:07:36.949 --> 0:07:37.469
<v Speaker 1>catch it?

0:07:37.789 --> 0:07:38.109
<v Speaker 2>Okay?

0:07:38.149 --> 0:07:40.709
<v Speaker 1>And at what point is it you've just lost the

0:07:40.749 --> 0:07:43.229
<v Speaker 1>pregnancy or you're at risk of losing the filopian tube.

0:07:43.269 --> 0:07:44.749
<v Speaker 1>I know this is scary things.

0:07:45.069 --> 0:07:49.189
<v Speaker 2>That's important. Yeah, So often ectopic pregnancies grow slower than

0:07:49.349 --> 0:07:52.909
<v Speaker 2>into uterine pregnancies, which means a uterus maybe inside the uterus.

0:07:53.149 --> 0:07:55.229
<v Speaker 2>So the highlight there is if you have any pain

0:07:55.269 --> 0:07:57.709
<v Speaker 2>and bleeding, which you're concerned about, go to ED or

0:07:57.749 --> 0:07:59.709
<v Speaker 2>at least to you GP for a discussion, and if

0:07:59.749 --> 0:08:01.669
<v Speaker 2>they're concerned, they'll send you in. Most of the time,

0:08:01.669 --> 0:08:03.469
<v Speaker 2>even though it's early, we'll do an ultrasound to check

0:08:03.509 --> 0:08:05.749
<v Speaker 2>and because you can still see a gestational sackle or

0:08:05.749 --> 0:08:09.709
<v Speaker 2>at least a pregnancy, a clear cystic structure inside the uterus,

0:08:09.709 --> 0:08:12.829
<v Speaker 2>that will likely be a pregnancy. Things to be concerned about,

0:08:12.909 --> 0:08:14.389
<v Speaker 2>which not not for you guys to worry, but more

0:08:14.429 --> 0:08:15.829
<v Speaker 2>for me to worry about, is if the baby has

0:08:15.829 --> 0:08:18.109
<v Speaker 2>a heartbeat already and it's in the tube, if there's

0:08:18.149 --> 0:08:21.589
<v Speaker 2>already bleeding inside the pelvis, that's unfortunately a time when

0:08:21.589 --> 0:08:24.029
<v Speaker 2>we will say, look, we wouldn't manage you medically, so

0:08:24.069 --> 0:08:25.989
<v Speaker 2>we can give often given an injection in the arm

0:08:26.029 --> 0:08:27.709
<v Speaker 2>to manage them, which is called methotrexate, or we take

0:08:27.709 --> 0:08:29.629
<v Speaker 2>you to theaters and unfortunately sometimes have to remove the

0:08:29.669 --> 0:08:33.109
<v Speaker 2>fallopian tube. Big discussions. Okay, so this is a conversation

0:08:33.149 --> 0:08:36.149
<v Speaker 2>probably outside of our pregnancy podcast, but if you are

0:08:36.149 --> 0:08:38.709
<v Speaker 2>concerned about that, it's always, always, always better to come

0:08:38.709 --> 0:08:41.429
<v Speaker 2>to hospital and get checked, because it's not the loss

0:08:41.429 --> 0:08:43.429
<v Speaker 2>of the tube I'm worried about. You've got another one okay,

0:08:43.509 --> 0:08:45.709
<v Speaker 2>And ironically, even if you lose one tube, you still

0:08:45.709 --> 0:08:47.509
<v Speaker 2>have a ninety percent chance of getting pregnant because that

0:08:47.589 --> 0:08:51.149
<v Speaker 2>amazing second tube floats around, would you believe inside, and

0:08:51.229 --> 0:08:54.949
<v Speaker 2>the actual egg has some chemo receptive factors that actually

0:08:54.989 --> 0:08:57.069
<v Speaker 2>allows it to find the other tubes. So even if

0:08:57.109 --> 0:08:58.789
<v Speaker 2>you opulate from the left ovary but don't have a

0:08:58.829 --> 0:09:00.509
<v Speaker 2>tube on that side, most of the time the other

0:09:00.749 --> 0:09:02.989
<v Speaker 2>filopian tube will collect it. So that's not your concern.

0:09:03.109 --> 0:09:06.629
<v Speaker 2>My concern is your bleeding becomes so heavy that your

0:09:06.629 --> 0:09:09.229
<v Speaker 2>life is compromised. So and topic pregnancy is absolutely not

0:09:09.269 --> 0:09:12.269
<v Speaker 2>something to wait for, even if the pregnancy is very

0:09:12.349 --> 0:09:12.869
<v Speaker 2>much wanted.

0:09:12.949 --> 0:09:15.829
<v Speaker 1>I think that's probably overall advice for pregnancy is that

0:09:15.869 --> 0:09:16.989
<v Speaker 1>there's no dumb questions.

0:09:17.109 --> 0:09:18.629
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I agree, Yes, thank you.

0:09:19.189 --> 0:09:21.789
<v Speaker 1>It's the best advice for this week. Yeah, no dumb questions.

0:09:21.829 --> 0:09:24.509
<v Speaker 1>Always ask cups will always be safe because also a

0:09:24.549 --> 0:09:26.389
<v Speaker 1>medical professional would have heard it all before.

0:09:26.229 --> 0:09:27.789
<v Speaker 2>Exactly and they can reassure.

0:09:27.349 --> 0:09:31.629
<v Speaker 1>You in the toolkit. This week, I've got drink lots

0:09:31.669 --> 0:09:35.109
<v Speaker 1>of water because it's starting to feel hot just living,

0:09:36.949 --> 0:09:40.269
<v Speaker 1>and also to just do outdoor dining just in case

0:09:40.309 --> 0:09:42.069
<v Speaker 1>if you're at a restaurant pick a table outside.

0:09:42.149 --> 0:09:42.989
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because of the heat.

0:09:43.189 --> 0:09:45.349
<v Speaker 1>The heat, you don't know what smells are going to

0:09:45.389 --> 0:09:47.509
<v Speaker 1>come past. You don't know if someone is going to

0:09:47.549 --> 0:09:50.549
<v Speaker 1>order something next to you that's now repulsive to you.

0:09:51.229 --> 0:09:54.109
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, that was too I've got.

0:09:55.109 --> 0:09:58.349
<v Speaker 2>Largely because we need to prepare for the next few months.

0:09:58.389 --> 0:10:00.549
<v Speaker 2>I think it's time to also think about who's going

0:10:00.549 --> 0:10:02.149
<v Speaker 2>to be around with you around the time of birth.

0:10:02.189 --> 0:10:04.549
<v Speaker 2>So just invite that person to your outdoor dining experience

0:10:04.869 --> 0:10:06.029
<v Speaker 2>or a couple of people you know. You can do

0:10:06.069 --> 0:10:07.309
<v Speaker 2>it as in a bit of an interview style, but

0:10:07.349 --> 0:10:09.149
<v Speaker 2>it's you're going to need your family and friends around

0:10:09.149 --> 0:10:11.829
<v Speaker 2>you for pregnancy and birth, and so probably time to

0:10:11.829 --> 0:10:13.309
<v Speaker 2>start thinking about who those people are going to be.

0:10:13.549 --> 0:10:18.549
