[quote=Anonymous]DH and I would like to do a renovation to the home. We were thinking third trimester might be a good time, or alternatively at some point during the baby's first year. Not sure which would be worse. On the one hand, I don't want to be exposed to dust and construction nasties while pregnant. On the other hand, a renovation (this one would probably last 6 weeks) could be disruptive to a newborn or baby's napping/feeding schedule and they could be bothered by the dust and noise. Not sure what to do. The nice thing about doing it after delivery would be that I would be on maternity leave and could supervise the reno. Otherwise, both of us will be at work full-time and won't be there at all to supervise, and I would prefer to supervise at least some of it.[/quote]
