    My bellybutton didn't pop out with my son or daughter.

    I didn't start to show with my son until I was 7.5 months pregnant.
    Started to show with daughter when I was about 4 months.

    I'm only 10 weeks now but I feel like I'm ready to pop lol!!


    I've got a quick question too actually! Am I OK to have Lockets/Tunes/Halls etc??

    I've got a horrific sore throat, it feels like I have razor blades there when I cough and there's sod all I can do at this hour on a Saturday night, but I've just had 1 Halls and it is soooo soothing ~ they are OK aren't they so long as I don't eat 4 packets? lol

    I had a locket last week after reading the packet which said something like, there are no known effects on pregnancy, I too had a really sore throat and took the vaguness of the description as a risk I was willing to take:p

    Hi girls,

    Just got myself a temp xmas job at 20weeks pregnant - i didnt tell them i was expecting so worried when i start next sunday. The temp contract will end about a month before baby is due so I'm hoping they will be fine with it :confused:

    Anyone else been in this situation?

    I'd have told them to be honest... I know that technically they're not allowed to discriminate against you for beign pregnant but it may be that being 7/8 months pregnant presents them with a health and safety issue in the work place depending on the job you've got?

    Yes, you should really have a risk assessment done.
