I would say it depends. Some of them contain solvents and that's what you need to be careful of. But I did some painting when I was pregnant and had the solvent free paint but I did open all the windows and wear a mask as well just to be on the safe side...x

Ladies, mothercare has a sale on at the moment, up to 50% off in some cases, and 20% off other things...but if you download the app and use it to spend over £50, you get £10 off. Just in case you were going anyway! X

has a thin girl inside!
For anyone who has had a baby before.
My baby is 6 weeks old today - this mornin I feel my period might have started - would this be possible?
I'm not 100% sure if I ever stopped bleeding after birth but there was only tiny amounts when I wiped but it was stringy and I had started to think it was coming away from the cut more than anywhere else. But today it looks bright red and I've needed a pad again.
I've got my 6 week check up on Monday I just wanna know what I'm saying as I know they ask about bleeding xx

Sounds like it. Does it look like a period? No clots or anything? X

There's still stringy bits...thick an thin patches...
And how bad is it that I don't really know what period looks like?!
Before TTC (which took me 1 month!) I hadn't has a period for about 8 years! And before that I didn't use pads or 'inspect' what I lost - is that totally wrong of me? X

Haha no! It's lucky I'd say! As long as it doesn't smell and no clots I wouldn't worry. You will know for sure if it goes in a week! X

Pregnant with Baby No 2!
Hi Ladies x I was wondering if you had any thoughts on this...
is it possible for your bump to "drop" at 28 weeks? I thought it seemed a little lower this week, but MIL commented a lot today on how low my bump looks today compared to last week when she saw me. Was just wondering if that's even possible? xx

Again... Dunno ( don't know allot do I haha)
My doc did say he couldn't tell me baby's position earlier in the week coz in an hour it may have changed coz they move around do much at this stage...

Lol I'm in the same boat hun! I always think now I'd love to be a MW, must be handy when you're pregnant...you can answer you're own questions lol you know what's normal, what isn't etc. You can feel what way round baby is etc... Was it like that for you Susie?
Yeah I think at this stage they are getting snug in there, but still have room to manouver (sp?) I know they check you around 32 weeks to check position, and they deffo do at 36 weeks because by that point they barely have any room to turn round xx

I'm not sure hun! Mine didn't drop until some time around 36 weeks, baby may have changed position though? My bump changes shape if baby moves

Yeah I'm sure it's just that x MIL said something to hubby and now he's worried thinking I'm going to have baby soon! I'm not worried at all, I'm sure it's just the way baby is lying! Xx

Mine went head down at about your stage thinking about it, it could be that! I noticed a change in movements around the same time, it was when I went to PAU as he'd not moved for a bit. If so that's brill! Means baby is heading the right way

Yeah I'd be well chuffed if she is head down lol I'm feeling some movements quite high up almost near my ribs so it could be her little tootsies
either that or she's breech lol xx

Aw, I bet that's some little feets you can feel! I felt the same sort of thing at first. Now he sticks a foot in my ribs and won't move or just kicks me one really hard
Your midwife should tell you which way up she is next time you see her - exciting times! xxx

Lol aww bless him
I feel all emotional (in a happy way) right now I can feel her rolling right now... I just had my hand on my belly and I think I just had my hand on her back or on her bum how amazing? I still can't believe I'm going to be having a baby, and then I have moments like this where I can feel her and it feels real. xx

It's so lovely isn't it <3 I love him so much already, I can hardly imagine loving him even more but I know I will! I'm so excited for all of our babies to be here now, as much as I love sharing pregnancy stories the baby stories will be even better! xxx
