Full transcript
Let's start today by checking your blood pressure and listening carefully to the baby's heartbeat, Amina, before we talk about how you've been feeling.
Nimekuwa nikisikia maumivu kidogo mgongoni lakini kwa ujumla najisikia vizuri. Je, mtoto anaendelea vizuri?
Yes, the baby is doing very well — the heartbeat is strong at one hundred and forty beats per minute, which is completely normal for thirty-two weeks.
Asante, hilo linanifariji sana. Lakini nimeona miguu yangu yanavimba kidogo wakati wa jioni, je hilo ni la kawaida?
A little swelling in the evenings can be normal, but if it suddenly worsens or spreads to your face, don't wait — come straight to Logan Hospital's emergency department immediately.
Nimeelewa vizuri, nitakuwa mwangalifu sana. Nitakuja hospitalini mara moja endapo nitaona dalili hizo.
Your next appointment will be in three weeks, on Thursday morning at ten o'clock, so we can check your progress again.
Sawa, nitakuja siku ya Alhamisi saa nne asubuhi kama ulivyosema.
Are you still taking your iron and folic acid tablets every single day, without skipping any doses at all?
Ndiyo, ninameza vidonge vya chuma na foliki kila siku, sijawahi kukosa hata siku moja.
That's good to hear. Keep taking them daily, and if anything feels wrong before your next visit, call the hospital directly rather than waiting.
Asante sana, muuguzi, kwa ushauri wako wote. Tutaonana Alhamisi ijayo.
