  • oh yes, starting to wear maternity clothes and maxi dresses around now is a very good idea, I have hit week 18 today in my second pregnancy and everything is getting bigger sooner. With baby growing as much as he is I am feeling him move a lot more, I felt him kicking a few mornings ago but I am mainly feeling pressure from him rolling around.

    • THANKS FOR THE BEAUTIFUL PIC SHAE’N’ALY and wishing you health and much happiness..all my best wishes to you and your family. :-)
