[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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. [b]The nice thing about doing it after delivery would be that I would be on maternity leave and could supervise the reno.[/b] 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] bwahahahahahahahah! I'm sorry, what? [/quote] I agree. How are you gonna supervise with the baby attached to you? Are you going to take her into the dusty rooms? You won't have time and will likely be too exhausted to think clearly. [/quote]
