I had been told that I couldn't have children so the arrival of my first son was a complete surprise! I had my first son shortly after I was married, I was 21. My (now ex) husband and I decided to try for another child sooner rather than later as we expected it could take a long time before I fell pregnant again. But instead I fell pregnant really quickly. (I now don't believe what the Doctors said at all). I had another beautiful boy.

A few years after my ex-husband and I split up I met my best friend and soul mate.

He has 5 and a bit children from two previous marriages, 3 boys and 3 girls. I say a bit as his first wife had a son before he met her. But we still count him very much as apart of our family.

I found I was expecting our 1^st child only a month after we had started dating. We were very happy as we felt it was a great way for all our children to feel connected to each other. He has been a bundle of energy since they day he arrived.

Now, completely unplanned, I have just discovered that I’m expecting another baby.

I feel like I'm on a rollercoaster of emotions as we had decided that we had more than enough children. Having said that it was my (better) other half who had asked recently if I would like a girl? But I felt with the number of boys that I have, that my chances are very, very slim. So again we decided not to have anymore children.

I honestly couldn't tell you where this pregnancy has come from. All I know is that it has been very determined to be here..

Hi.. I'm now about 119 pounds. when i was 5 months you couldnt really tell i was prego now it is starting to show a bit more. Im eating like 5-6 times a day

I get hungry all the time. most the time i dont know wht to eat and my husband is always in a diet so i go to babyfit.com you should check it out. the baby never stops moving!! he wakes me up in the morning so i can eat i guess

when he kicks i stay in bed but the kicks become harder and harder so i have to get up!! so im kind of saying good bye to my late sleeping

. so how are you? how are the kids? how is the mil treating you? Hope you are happier now. take care..

Well, I guess pregnancy is not really my thing. I think motherhood will be, however. I do not enjoy this part of it at all.

Congrats on your pregnancy, and your fabulous man. Like you, I do not understand how some women put up with men who do not treat them right. It sickens me, because I want to see them stand up and kick the jerks to the curb! I am glad to see you are not one of those ladies.
Also, seems like you have quit the family tree growing. You are my hero, because after this first and only pregnancy, I can't see myself doing this again! You're amazing!

I know what you mean about your MIL.

I've got one of those mums who's ok in small doses! We're not exactly close. She was always very moody when i was growing up & could fly off the handle at any little thing. She just seemed to have permenant PMS!! Bad PMS!!
She's also VERY LOUD(Completely the opposite of me)& to be quite honest i find her extremely embarrassing when we go anywhere together. I've always been much closer with my nan who really is more like a mum to me.

Normally i don't see a great deal of my mum even though we live close to each other. We speak on the phone & i know she'd be there if i really needed her but thats quite enough if you know what i mean!

When i had the other kids i just couldn't seen to get rid of her for weeks. She seemed to spend every waking moment round here & as i said she's very loud so i never seemed to get a quiet moment to myself.

This time shes booked to go on holiday at the end of Oct so she probably won't be away when the baby arrives but at least i'll get a couple of quiet weeks not long after & just like you i'm really looking forward to it!!

Glad your back is feeling a bit better by the way x

yeah.. i wish he didnt wake me up at seven in the morning for no reason!

You think it is my stomach muscle tht is holding up? i hope so bcs i was feeling a bit unsecure about the baby's health. i thought i wasnt eating enough but i eat the whole day! So how are you feeling? how is the mil treating you? well hope you are ok. Take care.

I'm the same as you. My baby is due on the exact day Joseph was due 15th oct. He actually came on the 10th & my daughter came a week early so i have a strong feeling that this one'll come slightly early too & spoil any birthday plans we make but my son says not bothered. In fact he's hoping that it'll come on his birthday as he thinks it would be a good present. He's really excited about all this as is Jessica.

Touch wood, the symphesis pubis thing isn't too bad for me at the moment. It's at it's worst during the night making it really hard to turn over & i have to admit that it's been lingering a little in the mornings just lately but not for too long. I can't sit with my legs curled round on the settee & if i've been sat still for a long time i get that SNAP when i try to stand & walk. I seem to remember it being worse then this at this point in my last pregnancy though. Then again i've still got a while to go so i'm not out of the woods yet am i!!

No I'm not testing now until AF is due and that's another 4 days. I think I've got PMT anyway so not happy

nikolajayneB - Tuesday, 24 June
I'm not surprised you both slept well after all that! I only have to walk a bit farther then the end of the street & i'm out of breath!

Had to take my daughter to the dentist yesterday. It was awful. She had to have the roots of a tooth that had broken off removed. I could see it was really hurting her. Her little legs were squirming about & there was nothing i could do but let them finish. I was more relieved then her i think when it was all over! Lol

We were worried because the last time she had a local anaesthetic her lip swole up 3times it's usual size. We were never quite sure if it was a reaction or just down to her chewing her lip while it was numb but luckily it must have been the latter because it didn't happen this time.

Good job as it's her birthday on thurs & she'd have looked awful for her party! It's my hubbys birthday on fri so it's a pretty eventful week for us this week. Jess' actual party is on sat. Can't wait. All those screaming kids running about. Oh, the joys of being a mum!

Hi I will keep my blog updated so you know whether I am preggers or not. Keeping everything crossed

nikolajayneB - Thursday, 19 June
Well she did say that she wasn't absolutely 100% certain or anything as of course she's not a midwife & said it's easy to mis-interpret what you see on the screen which i know is true (although it was a very clear picture) but i still wish she'd kept her mouth shut & just hadn't mentioned to me that she'd even looked in the first place.

With my 1st baby, my mum came with me. That time i did want to know the sex & my mum started shouting "it's a boy, it's a boy" & in fact it was but the thing she was assuming to be his penis actually turned out to be the umbilical cord!! Lol

I'm sorry your morning sickness is still bothering you by the way. I've been really lucky. For about the 1st 3mths with each pregnancy i've had the sicky, dizzy feeling & sometimes it's lasted all day but i wasn't actually sick. It must be miserable!

nikolajayneB - Thursday, 19 June
No, i won't have any more scans now. Not unless there's any kind of problem which fingers crossed there won't be!

I'm almost convinced that i'm having a boy. I took my cousin with me to my 20wk scan. I made it very clear to her & to the woman who was doing it that i didn't want to know the sex & that i wanted her to look away when they had to look anywhere in that region but she confessed to me afterwards that she HAD been looking! When i said that because of a vivid dream i'd had i was leaning more towards it being a boy she said 'yeah, i think it's a boy too'. Thats as good as actually telling me! Then she said that she didn't know for certain as scans are kinda hard to make out but everytime i've mentioned to anyone since that i think it may be a boy she's had a knowing grin on her face.

I honestly don't mind what sex this baby is but i just really didn't want to know until i've given birth to it. If she couldn't resist looking fair enough but why did she have to tell me so. She should've just kept it to her self. Now even though she still says she's not certain i feel as though she's spoiled my surprise & taken something away from me.

I really regret taking her. It's been nagging at me ever since. Sorry for going on & on but i needed someone to moan to! Lol
