I’ve noticed my little one keeps doing this hand movement but only with her right hand

I’ve not managed to film her doing it so I’m just showing myself doing it. She only does this hand movement on her right hand and usually looks at her hand when doing it. I don’t really know how to explain it that’s why I filmed it. Does anyone else little one do this? Just wondering if I should be concerned.

Bump

This is really strange to ask but how should our bumps feel at 18 weeks. Should it be hard or should it be soft. I suppose I’m just trying to determine how much is bump vs weight gain/bloat.

Hi! Please tell me this is normal….I am 6 weeks 5 days and I am feeling extremely tired, weak, and have had diarrhea for the past 2 days. Is this normal? It feels like I have the flu but no vomiting or fever. I did not have this when I was pregnant with my son so I’m freaking out a little bit!
