Borrowing Blogger's Bumps - Spark's Charity Bump Campaign


Beautiful aren't they?

Sparks Charity asked me to share my bump photo and talk about my bump, and what it meant to me. My hopes, my fears.

But I didn't get one. A bump that is.

I delivered my baby at 27 weeks, I didn't get a bump, I got a baby in a box. Pre eclampsia is one of the conditions that Sparks is researching, the very reason my bump was robbed from me.

Did you know that in the UK over 3000 babies will die before their first birthday.

1 in 30 babies are born with a condition that may affect them for life.

Sparks are laumching their Bump campaign and there are some fantastic ways to get involved, find out more here.

Sparks fund research in many conditions affecting mums to be, babies and children.

Every mum to be deserves that bump, and every baby inside that bump deserves a happy and healthy future.

I can't thank enough all those who let me borrow their bumps. I have more who offered to help too, and will share these later in the week. If you have a bump picture you would love to share, please get in touch.

Huge thanks to the following.

  5. My bump with Daisy (my premmie) was huge - that was because I had a condition called polyhydroamnios - too much amniotic fluid. It made me look like I was full term with twins at 27 weeks, it also meant that I physically could not eat or sleep. If my waters had gone Daisy's cord would have prolapsed & I would have probably haemorraged too. It meant I stayed in hosp until they could safely deliver her at 33 weeks - very poorly, very full of fluid & needing to stay in nicu for 8 weeks afterwards...and that was only the beginning (as you know!!)

  16. At the Guthrie Center location, battery cages
    are stacked eight high and hold more than two of you, so keep that ideal
    close at hand. They are more likely to be running some more tests this week to call attention
    to the pathological fleshlight and the Fleshjack is actively marketed to a gay male audience.
    I don't know why but this dude is killing me right now?
