A beautiful sound

I tend to worry when I don’t feel Jessica move for a while, particularly as she is generally very wriggly. I do try and stay rational, but after a fairly quiet Sunday afternoon at home, it dawned on me that I really hadn’t felt her move for several hours. Ice-cream, cold water and prodding didn’t seem to make any difference and by the time I went to get the Sonicaid, I was in a state of panic. What a relief it was to then hear her heartbeat loud and clear – such a beautiful sound – followed by a cheeky little wriggle.
