This past week I have been feeling rather emotional about my bump. I know it will soon be gone and although I know that what’s in there right now will be on the outside, in my arms, it’s a strange feeling to know that I won’t be able to feel little “Flump” wriggling around, responding to the games we like to play and that my hard, mountainous belly will deflate and become something that resembles more of a wobbly jelly!
I feel sad that “Flump” will no longer exist. It sounds so stupid. I know it does. I keep asking Matt how I am going to get used to calling our baby by the name we have chosen and not “Flump” after all of these months. I know for a fact that it will be easy once he or she is here but right now it doesn’t seem like it.
I love Flump. I’ve bonded with him or her. I’m going to love our baby, I already do and have done since day one. Being pregnant and actually having your baby are two difference experiences though and not having “Flump” inside anymore will take some getting used to.
I still can’t wait to meet you “Flump”.
Love Forever,
Mummy xxxxx

Aww huni, massive hugs to you…. I personally cannot wait for Flump to arrive… and it will be weird not calling him or her Flump.

I’m now 34 weeks and I also feel quite emotional about loosing my belly! On the one hand I am relieved that the discomfort will be gone but it will be sad that I won’t have my little one with me as permanently ever with me..
