Q: 9 weeks pregnant and my 16 month old likes to use me as a jungle gym....

I will be 9 weeks tomorrow and I also have a 16 month old daughter. Lately she's been very clingy and needy. She also like to use me as her jungle gym. Knees, feet, hands and elbows go straight into my belly. Will the baby be okay? Im concerned she may do something.

I'm 19 weeks and I have a daughter who will be 2 in May. While I try to be careful and teach her to stay off my belly, I get the occasional elbow or kick. Everything I've been reading said you will have enough amniotic fluid to protect your fetus but obviously better safe than sorry. Just keep telling her to be gentle around your belly area and she will eventually catch on. Just don't blame the baby.. you won't need any extra reasons for your daughter to be jealous of your new arrival!!

The baby, should be okay, it will hurt you before the baby.
