Hi, i'm Nikola. I've been married to my husband Willy for nearly 7 yrs & we're expecting our 3rd child on Oct 15th & i can't wait! We had our first 2 children when we were fairly young but definately feel more prepared this time around. I'll be 28 by the time my baby is born & my children will be aged 9 & 7 so there's a bit more of a gap then i'd wish for but now that they're both in school full time & i have all day to myself (i don't work, just a housewife) i feel that i have plenty of time on my hands (too much at times). Although i have to admit that we didn't plan this baby (it was just a happy accident) i really can't wait for it to arrive & feel that it will fit into my life perfectly right now. My children are both really excited & constantly ask questions. I try to show them pictures so they can see how it's changing & growing every week & tell them about all the new developments. My son who's the eldest was a wonderful baby. He's always been really loving. My daughter was a good baby but by 18mths-2yrs she became a bit of a handful. Now that she's a bit older she's growing into a lovely girl & she loves babies. I think she'll be a big help when the baby finally comes along. I can't get them to agree on the baby's sex though. My son of course wants a boy & my daughter a girl but i'm not going to find out so they'll have to wait a bit longer to see who's right!!

Monday, 7 July I hope there's more to the antenatal classes than that, there's 6 weeks of them!! Could get a bit tedious! That's all I can picture too, think TV might be to blame!
Happy birthday for yesterday, did you have a nice time? You're right, it's nice to get out just the two of you once ina while! emb17 -
Thursday, 3 July I'm having one of my "i'm tooo exhausted to move," days. Do you ever get them?
I keep looking at all the house work I have to do and it just makes me feel more exhausted!!!!
We have seen alot of all the other children and I feel that for the last 2 weeks I just haven't stoped. We have had dozens of school trips, assembalies, cub trips, beaver trips, etc..... I could now sleep for a week!!!
ZZZZ lol
It's my MIL 70th on Monday and we are taking her away for the weekend as part of her birthday prezy. (
What am a I doing???? A weekend away with my MIL!!! I must be mad?????) If you hear from me again I survived! LOL
I think we might have all the kids round on Monday as I offered to make a cake, (I must make my ducks lay some eggs again! for some reason they have given up?!?)
Hope you are well? TC Em x Megan the lump maker -
Wednesday, 2 July Thanks, it is so friggen painful. I thought my bones were splitting apart. It has lightened up since last night, but it's a horrible feeling! coylton gail -
Wednesday, 2 July What a good idea to have your daughter's party in a playzone! Good for you!
We had a picnic in the rain on Sunday! It was already planned and the picnic was made up by the time it started to rain so we went anyway and Scott and his friend moved some picnic tables under the trees so we didn't get too wet! It cleared up soon after we'd eaten and turned into a lovely day!
We start our antenatal classes on the 14th July, can't wait, don't know what to expect! It'll be nice to see other mums to be! emb17 -
Tuesday, 1 July I had some phisyo which I thought had made things alot worse to start with but a few days on after having it and some of the pain has gone 
My MIL is starting to panic about the due date of this baby as she has now realised that she will be away on holiday. I'm hoping it will arrive then as it will be alot easyer having the house to my self and not having her in and out like a yo yo!!! coylton gail -
Friday, 27 June Yes, I know I've got an amazing mum and we spoil each other all the time!
I'm glad Jess had a good birthday, hope your husband and you enjoy your special days as well! All those birthdays so close together! Enjoy!!
Take care! x coylton gail -
Wednesday, 25 June Thanks for the tip, I'll have a wee look at the website. Now I've seen a lot of the prams I know what I like anyway. I did think about putting towards the pram but my mum is determined that the grandparents traditionally buy the first pram! Once she's made her mind up on something she's a very determined lady! She did also offer to swap cars with me for a few months so I can get myself sorted and swap mine for something slightly bigger, so that's another option.
Your poor daughter, sounds as if she had a hellish day! I've got all that to come! At least she got to choose a nice birthday present I'm sure that cheered her up! emb17 -
Tuesday, 24 June Say happy birthday to all from us lot
We have almost a birthday or 2 a month in our house hold and that is just the imediate family! lol It's fun but very expencive! I have 2 partys to plan at about the time I'm due to give birth!!!!
I'm not sure I will cope with that but lets see.
I went to see the physio about my back and pubis thing yesterday and all he could say was that I needed to re-build my muscel! He did some stuff to me too which left me in more pain than when I arrived!
I think that is one reason I will be glad when this is all over, I'm looikng forward to meeting my next footballer though

Tuesday, 24 June awww, all the guilt us mothers go through!! Thanks for that insight, I think it will make them better individuals too, they learn to share and be compassionate with others and so forth........I just feel so terrible and am going to miss the time spent with my little girl now, she will be exactly 2 when the new little girl is born, and she is already obsessed with babies so hopefully that is a good sign =) emb17 -

That bit about your mum made me laugh.
The morning sickness just comes and gose now it's not as bad as it was, thankfully! I just get odd days where it gets to me!
I thought I was being clever on Saturday. My partner has been involved in the round britan power boat race thing so I was really keen to see the start! I droped him at the boat he was using as a starting boat and carried on round to hurst castle spit, (I was told this would be the best viewing point!!!!) I started walking down with my youngest who is 2 and realised about 3/4 of the way their! I had possibly made a big mistake it felt like I had walked miles! Infact when I got back my partner told me the spit is about a mile + long so my self and Jacob had walked nearly 3 miles!!!! The two of us slept extremly well the rest of that day and Sunday
I don't think that is the sort of the the midwife had in mind when she said gentle excersise lol coylton gail -
Monday, 23 June Wow! That's a busy week! And I thought I had a lot to do!!
We found two prams small enough to fit in my tiny car, only thing is they both work out quite expensive! Typical! My mum says not to worry about the cost, but you don't like to choose the dearest thing, do you? Well, it's not the dearest exactly, but more than I'd been thinking! Still cheaper than changing cars though.
We found a huge Mothercare store in East Kilbride and there was a good sale on, so between us we spent £50 on baby things! It was good fun, my mum's getting really excited about choosing things for the baby!
Make sure you get your feet up on Sunday come hell or high water, you're going to be needing it!! coylton gail -
Friday, 20 June I'm glad you've decided to call the doc, that's what they're there for! If you do need any treatment it'll be over before you go on holiday! I just found out that some ferry companies insist on a doctor's letter as well, so I'll have to get one if we're taking the ferry to Belfast for a day! Better safe than sorry though!
I'm going pram shopping with my mum this weekend, she's offered to buy us our pram, so hopefully we'll find something we like! Hope you have a good weekend! coylton gail -
Friday, 20 June Hiya, you're quite right to start wearing your new things, they'll still look new when you get to your holiday! There's a good sale in Mothercare just now if there's one near you, or you can order online. Blooming Marvellous have just started a sale as well, but I've not had anything from them yet, so don't know how comfy they are! I've got a couple of pairs of trousers from Mothercare and they've been great, I've a pair from Dorothy Perkins, they're not so good as the waist is straight at the front, so even if it's properly adjusted it feels tight when you sit down!
Yes, I'm getting to quite a size now! I'm so enjoying being pregnant though, I feel great with my bump! I've still 3 months to go though, that's quite a lot of growing time!! Yikes!
I've spoken in my sleep before but I don't think I've ever actually done anything without waking up before! I don't think I actually got up out of bed, just phoned from where I was! I'm careful to switch my mobile off before I go to bed now!!
Why don't you phone your midwife about your tiredness and possibly anaemia? You'll probably get a wee extra appointment for a blood test and at least it would put your mind at rest and get iron tablets if you need them. I wouldn't wait 5 weeks for something like that cos it's important for baby devlopment. Your baby will take what it needs though, it would be you who would suffer!! beks1978 -
Friday, 20 June i went to the hospital and was checked over my cervix was closed and no more water was leaking so all is well....back to see midwife on monday x

Thursday, 19 June hi thanks for your message..ive rang midwife and they said to leave it an hour then ring back if i have leaked anymore..havent leaked anymore since but will probabbily have to go in to be checked will keep you posted thanks again x EmB17 -
Thursday, 19 June That's fine moan away
I think that is one of the best things about meeting people on this site, we all have are moment's and it's a great way to get it all of our chests.
With my first two I really really didn't want to know what sex they were but I had a strong feeling they were boys. With my 3rd I as unsure and wouldn't have been worried if someone told me or not, but again I was convinced he was a boy and he was! but with this one I really wanted to know. I'm not even sure why it is so important for me to know
anyway again I'm convinced it is a boy but my morning sickness still keeps poping up at odd times, I got back this morning from dropping the boys at their bus and felt so ill and dizy I just had to sit at the bottom of the stairs and get my baring again!
Is your cousin able to understand the scan's???? If not she could be very wrong?! I have a friend who is a midwife and she thought from the scan she was having a boy and she had a girl, she still keeps telling me how shocked she still is as she was soo convinced it was a boy.

Wednesday, 18 June I'm headed to the dr tomorrow so I'm goin to ask b/c anemia runs in my fam!! Good time to check it out! EmB17 -
Tuesday, 17 June We have to put a donation in the box, which reads min recormendation £1! So that was all I put in, but that ws because the woman that did my scan was mean!!!! 
But at least I know the baby is healthy and kicking like mad this evening! 
When I first fund out I was pregnant my gut reaction was it's a girl this time, but the min I saw the scan I was convinced it is a boy. who knows I love it what ever. 
Will you have anymore scans now? I can't remember if I already asked or not? coylton gail -
Monday, 16 June I'm totally with you on the maternity clothes!! I'm wearing a pair of under-bump trousers today and feel like I've been pulling the trousers up and the top down all day!! I wouldn't care so much if I wasn't at my work..!
That's a lot of cards to have to buy!! I took the easy option and got Jack to write a card from him and the bump!!
My swelling has calmed down a bit, thanks! Whenever I sat down at the weekend Scott was pushing a foot stool over to me to put my feet up on!! It all helps!
Had a wee sleep walk type of episode last night, don't think I actually got up, but I got my mobile and phoned a friend at half one in the morning! I didn't even speak to her, just phoned and hung up! Had to apologise this morning!! Think I was just so exhausted! Luckily she was very understanding about it!! cherryzz -
Monday, 16 June I did, I was told to relax. And I was told if i start getting cramping, or contractions to go to the ER.
Thank you EmB17 -
Monday, 16 June I have finally got round to putting my most reasent scan pick's up. I don't have a scanner so I have been photographing them and hoping they come out ok. I didn't get very many. All my other children I had loads or really detailed scan pictures with everything named so I knew what was what when showing friends. Have a look let me know what sex you think it might be.

Sunday, 15 June Thanks so much for the advice!...i'm glad to say that me and my partner talked it over and he realised that he maybe has to stop nit picking at every little thing she does. I've decided to play a bigger role when it comes to telling her off so my partner isnt always seen as the bad one! He and my daughter talked it through and they have both turned over a new leaf and agree to be nicer to eachother!! PHEW I'm so glad they are friends again, I can't tell you what a relief it is!! Good luck on your third pregnancy, I hope it all goes well xxxx

Friday, 13 June You can take Benadryl which is an antihistamine but I don't know about the other one you mentioned. You can always call a pharmacist near you and ask them...or just call your dr and explain the situation. coylton gail -
Friday, 13 June I know I'm lucky, he's taking it in his stride!
When I read your message I laughed and promptly uncrossed my legs! And now that I've typed that I've just uncrossed them the other way!! Arrgghh!! It's such a habit I don't even know I'm doing it!!
That's nice that you got to see your wee one in his play, I used to teach in primary schools and I loved doing things like that!
