baby bump #2
妊娠中に運動を行うことが,思っているよりも悪いことではないようです。記事の中では,自身が妊娠していることに気が付かず,マラソンに出場した女性などが紹介されております。
記事の中で気になった表現は"baby bump"です。Oxford Dictionaries.comには"The protrusion of a pregnant woman’s abdomen, typically when it is first noticeable to other people"と書かれておりました。「妊娠によって膨らんだおなか」を表すようです。妊娠8ヶ月目で競技をしていたということですね。(Ume)
