I'm Alex , I'm 32 and live in Scotland, UK. I am married with one daughter and just had a baby boy Sebastian on 27th April. My pregnancies could not have been more different to each other. The first my daughter was a breeze until I went overdue by 10 days and had a nightmare labour. With my son my waters broke at just under 37 weeks after a horrendous pregnancy, but the delivery was perfect.

Thanks for the reassuring remark you made on my poll about the gender picture. I thought I had seen other girl pictures that looked almost identical, but before I went out shopping, I wanted to be sure. By the way, I like the name you chose for your boy.

Thanks... Ya my midwife came by the house this morning to check on me because the hospital is almost a hour away when traffic is up. But she said the same thing but I have to go to the hospital if there 6-8 min. apart just because of the drive.but the pains are quite painful but there mostly in my back.. But thank you for the help!

LOL thanks for the answer to my poll and I was the one that said I believe smoking during pregnancy is be a form of child abuse, I wasn't basing it towards the moms that try to stop, but to the moms that smoke the whole 40 weeks and don't give a damn about their baby.

I know, I think of Waylon Jennings too...my husband came up with that one...We'll see

About drinking coke. That cracks me up LOL. I can't wait till my baby is out and I will have a big coke and piece of fish. I'm sure coke wont help while breastfeeding but I love it.

Hey there, thanks for commenting on my poll. That's really nice to know that Tam is common in Scotland for a boy. When I told my mum she just said 'urgh that's a girls name' I should have learnt after the first one that telling her in advance wasn't a good idea. When I told her we were thinking of Kai she said 'what, like Kylie?' lol. But knowing that Tam can be for a boy somewhere in the UK makes me like it more.. thanks alot :o)

Thanks very mush for your comment on my poll. I had a very stressful time the first time and found it very frightening. I was a bit worried that i would feel anxious and stressed this time. Its made me feel better about the fact that you said the recovery was quicker as i have a 5 yr old and was worried of the effect of a long hospital stay or recovery would have on her. Thanks alot tho, that was a great help. xx

i dont even know who myra hindley is so it wouldnt be a problem! im going to google now!

Hey hun

cheers for the comment on my poll. At the end of it I DID say that they are great kids and we do get on!!! I think just I didnt explain myself very well or people just arent reading right!
My worry is we have absolutly nothing to do with them at night time. My family and friends live 2 hours away, Their bitch mum is fucking usuless and dosnt drive, plus I dont really want her anywhere near my house, shes a fucking pshyco and has alreadys broken into our old house beofre!!!!
Gavs sister is the only person that we could use but she is also pregnant and due 5 days after me and alreday has 2 kids of her own so we can not expect her to get up and come babbysit in the middle of the night. Im just too scared to get Gav to tell the ex that they cant stay, as they are going through the divorce and if we break the arrangement then she can cause all sorts of trouble.!!!!!

What a friggin nightmare.
We are planning on moving closer to my family so next time im pregnant it wont be such a hassle.

Just out of curiousity, which of the other two did you like...Keaton or Caleb?


thirdtimearound - Thursday, 5 June
Hi, thanks for the comment about the name Cole. It still isn't very popular here in Canada, in the top 100 I think, but not too common. But, we seem to follow a lot of the UK's name trends so I appreciate the input. No one wants to think they've given their child an interesting name, only to find out later they are one of 5 in the class! Good luck, and thanks again.

The gift from the baby is such a good idea! Thanks!

thanks 4 commenting on my poll. i really dont want to have my tubes tied but my fiance is flipping out at the idea of him doing it. he says he will loose his manhood. i researched it and it seems pretty simple and they say u can still do everything (including orgasm ) sorry for TMI but he says that men can no longer have them after being snipped. i was wondering if u have any info on this and ur husbands thoughts on it. are they like my fiances or is he more relaxed about it? thanks so much
