My doctor said to me 'oh, and you did it right by getting married first!' lol.

I decided I really ought to take some bump pictures as I haven;t yet taken any and am 24 weeks, and then I thought I'd share one with you:



Everyone tells me my bump is small for 24 weeks but I think it's quite big? After all I still have four months to go.

Share your bump pix!

right if you want to be on list any newbie that aren't speak now or forever hold your peace and I'll put you on so tell me ur EDD and I'll sort it

Don't keep testing coz its pointless (she says having done 5 herself but my 1st 2 were TLPs so I got a digital one then had bleeding so decided to check they were getting darker by doing 2 more!) not to be the bearer of bad news but even if you loose bubba you will still test +ve for up to a month

EA - yes tell them you want the assessment NOW as you are pregnant NOW

EA - Was looking up about risk assessment, and found this:

"Can new and expectant mothers still work nights?
Yes. Unless there is a specific work risk and her GP/Midwife has provided a medical certificate stating that she must not work nights. If this is the case then her employer must offer her suitable alternative day work on the same terms and conditions and if that is not possible, then suspend her from work on paid leave for as long as necessary to protect her health and safety and/or that of her child."

See:

This leaflet (http://www.berr.gov.uk/files/file34285.pdf) says:

Once your employer knows you are
pregnant:

• Your employer must conduct a risk
assessment and remove risks or
make alternative arrangements to
protect your safety, and your baby’s

safety, when you are at work.

So insist on having one done now. Have you notified them in writing?
