When I was 2 and my Mum was pregnant with my brother she used to take me with her when she had her check-ups with the nurse.
When the nurse took her blood pressure she used the old-fashioned type thing which you have to pump by hand. I used to think that when she pumped up the machine she was pumping my Mum's tummy up too!!!
