lovestobake The movement with mine are also very active and so strong it hurts quite alot! I've read several places that this is the most active few weeks (I'm 32+3) before space gets too tight to be moving so much, so hopefully it'll feel calmer very soon :) Also your bump is very likely to be bigger with the second baby than the first, because your tummy "knows what to do"!
Showering tips: I sometimes put my leg sort of out and up to hip level, so the foot is resting on the wall of my shower, then I can shave all of it :P Unsure if this is sensible or not for most people, as I have hypermobile joints so can be a bit extra flexible - but worth a try! Also putting a towel on the toilet seat and putting your foot on it, easier to reach! ;D
I stayed up until 4 last night, we played a lovely warhammer game (my other half is teaching me, it's really fun actually, like a supersized board game!) and then he woke me up at 6 for some action, haha!
jazz buy one of those creams you can get :) And hopefully it'll go away soon!
artistic not heard of that before, seems drastic!
Since week 28-29, my SPD has calmed down so much, it's unbelievable. I think it's because I've stopped doing insane amounts of housemoving and cleaning etc, and limited walking on hard surfaces (shopping seems to make it so much worse)!
New years resolution is to make a huge effort to cut down on sugar, and increase fruit and veg intake: my diet has been so lacking due to money issue, but with money for presents we can now afford dinner every day for both of us, and bananas all around! Until baby is born anyway, when the lovely local council with cut my benefits by 75% (hormones and bipolar does not go well together O.o)
