The one where hopefully we are feeling less nauseous and knackered (although we develop hippo hands and feet due to the heat!), we are entering or are in our second trimester (phew!), we continue with 12 week scans and test results (ekkk!), we have 16 week midwife appointments and hear the heartbeat (OMG - aw!), we potentially see the beginnings of bumps and feel the first flutters of movement (wow!) and the 20 week scan for some is just around the corner! Grin

Oh and we try to improve our diets after surviving on one food group during the first trimester!!! Wink

Bring it on thread 7!!!

(pod hope I did you proud)!

pod am beginning to think it definitely was bubs moving. It was like a massive gas bubble moving through but no fart at the end.... Or when your stomach is gearing up for a big rumble, but no rumble came. I think it must have been bubs! Grin Really wanna feel it again!

Ekkk mrsv! Cant believe it! Finally! Perhaps it was the talking to I gave it yesterday along the lines of "why cant I feel u yet? Get flipping around!"

It was so weird - I wasnt sure if I liked it, but as soon as it stopped I wanted to feel it again! Grin

sultana woohoo for flippy baby!

MrsG that would be amazing if you don't mind, yes please!

lovelilies · 04/08/2013 15:02

Hope you're ok frying

Mythreeknights · 04/08/2013 18:08

Hope alls ok frying. Hope everyone else has been enjoying a sunny weekend...not too hot anymore. I have been doing a lot of painting (decorating) and hope that breathing in paint fumes hasn't been bad for bubs (shouldn't be...water based paint). Other than that, still knackered, no baby movement (16+2) (dc3) and am enjoying this gorgeous weather.

Mythreeknights · 04/08/2013 18:11

Hmmm, just read NHS Choices on advice on painting whilst pregnant, and it says ...don't. Oops.

AnotherStitchInTime · 04/08/2013 20:00

I helped paint several rooms in our flat with water based paint when pregnant with dd2 Mythree. Judging by the amount of noise she is making I can safely say that she is fine :)

TobyLerone · 04/08/2013 20:06

Meh, I'll be painting soon. And I painted DS's bedroom when I was pregnant with him. He'll be 14 soon, and is as fine as any teenage boy could be described as :o

sarahleanne · 04/08/2013 20:14

I painted Dd 's room at 6 months pregnant, I was up and down ladders and all sorts. Haha. Saying that, I am a very laid back pregnant lady and like to try and carry on as normal as best I can. Just open all the windows I'm sure it will be fine. Your also supposed to not be near cleaning products , well that's just not guna happen, I think the worlds gone mad lol.

Bluecarrot · 04/08/2013 20:20

Sarah - I delegated kitchen and bathroom cleaning duties to dp since I was 5ish weeks pregnant. Don't want to be taking any risks ;)

sarahleanne · 04/08/2013 20:41

Haha sounds like a good plan blue , unfortunately my dh works away so I don't have any choice .

Sultanajo · 04/08/2013 20:50

Wish I could get away with that blue although I have delegated painting the nursery to DH! I hate painting so thats a bonus! Grin

Finally finished fecking work for two days! Grin Grin Grin Such a relief! Looking forward to a lie in tomorrow, although I can imagine I will be up at the crack! Hmm

Humpty I think I have sent you the cosatto giggle review, I've not tried messaging before but fx I did it right!

If anyone else wants me to send them a which review just shout, I need to justify paying £10 a month just to look at prams and car seats!
