Hello

My name is Nichola this is my second pregnancy even though i only had my little girl nearly 3 years ago i have forgot just how it feels to be pregnant ! i never had any sickness with Ellie and this time round its a different story i have felt sick since i found out still feeling quite tired my little girl ellie keeps asking when the baby is coming out my tummy ! bless her. x

May 16th 07 well ive reached 15 weeks hooray! feels like its going quite quick, dont think i felt anything move yet but theres still time it must be a lazy baby ! 4 weeks to go to my holiday and being a bridesmaid for my sister we all off to Cyprus to get some sun cant wait just hope i can still fit in my dress! x

June 25th 07 I have just got back from my 2 week holiday in cyprus boy was it hot i loved every minute of it whilst i was there i was a bridesmaid for my younger sister i was really panicking about not getting in my dress but i just managed it i have to wear it again this saturday at her party so fingers crossed it will fit again i felt the baby kick me for the first time last week (20 weeks) i was starting to panick as i felt my little girl move alot earlier this one must be lazy

July 6th 07 22 weeks i cant believe it ive been on my 2 week holiday for this year normally go away in november but obviously i cant this year !!! i will busy having a little man or lady my friends found out what there having yesterday one having a girl and other having a boy they couldnt tell on my 20 week scan so im none the wiser! oh well will have to wait til the end unless i get another scan. done the bridesmaid thing for my sister thats all over now and there happily married going to london end of july to see my other friend get married looking forward to that little trip away without the daughter too. its my little girls birthday on wednesday shes going to be 3 yrs old where did that time go seems like yesterday she was born she so cute and adorable hope the next one is just the same

July 22nd 07 - well today i went into the loft and got all my babygrows out and blankets thats are neutral in colour seen as we dont no what we are having yet im dying to go out and buy pink or blue but i will have to wait a few more weeks yet, my little girl was getting excited as she was looking at her old clothes and saying mummy did i wear that it was so cute! back to work tomorrow boy the weekends go so quick we off to london soon for the weekend for a friends wedding in kensington/chelsea really looking forward to it .

july 29th 07 - well just got back from London what a fab weekend seen all the sights and been to madam tussards and on the london eye seen 10 downing street and buckingham palace. Wedding went well bit tiring gtting on and off tubes all the time but great fun ! spent loads of money how expensive is it down there !! hotel was nice stayed near Hyde Park great location. Pregnancy going well feeling the baby move all the time now mainly at night hope its not like that when he/she arrives my little girl slept through at 12 weeks so fingers crossed.

Aug 23rd 07 - cant believe i havent wrote anything for a while well nothing major to report im getting bigger by the week which is good my baby is moving around quite alot now its so funny to watch it i love being pregnant after i had gave birth to my little girl last time i felt like something was missing and kept feeling my belly, im about to book my holiday for next april were off to Barbados again cant wait !!!!!! going with Virgin Holidays so booking a sky cot for baby . back at the midwife in 3 weeks for check up baby is head down at present so hopefully wont move round now.

Sept 02nd 07 - well ive reached 30 weeks hooray and now ive developed symphisos pelvis dysfunction which means i cant walk around without getting pain in my pelvic area booked in for physio to see if it eases it midwife says its unfortunate but can happen and i have it now until i give birth so cant wait for it to come round quick so i can walk properly again booked in for my 4d scan tomorrow i made the decision to have it other wise i knew i would regret it so looking forward to that after work will post some pics as soon as poss.

Oct 9th - well i havent wrote on here in a long time todays the day i finished work to start my maternity leave for 9 months at least !!! i cant wait for it all to happen and get it over and done with im growing anxious day by day and scared after my last birth experience my friend eventually had her little girl nearly 2 weeks over due and she weighed in at 9lb 7 oz wow what a big un going to see them tomorrow in hospital she ended up having a c section at the end will be writing again soon

Oct 15th - well its the day of the hospital visit to find out if im booking in for another c section or trying it natural i really iam still not sure but going to see what the consultants advise i still have my pelvis problem and finding it difficult to walk around or do anything its so frustrating so i will be back here in a couple of hours to write what is going to happen to me !

well im back from the hospital and we opted for a c section due to the complications i had last time with my little girl so were booked in for the 30th october in a way i cant wait unless this baby has other ideas and comes early then it willl be a natural birth maybe we will have to wait and see

Oct 27th well its sunday morning and i still feel like crap had a tummy bug on fri and was feeling really sick spent all day in bed then my little girl started with it too being sick so she stayed in bed with me all day sat felt a little bit better but i just feel so tired at minute

Tue is the big day for us were having our baby number 2 we dont know what it is so it will be a suprise for us all going into hospital at 08.00 and have no time slot its whenever they take me down to delivery i hope its the morning. this baby is moving around so much still it hurts i think it must know its going to come out and its always awake at 10.30 pm not a good sign for me no sleep looming omg!!!!

oct 30th todays the day i will post my story when im out of hospital

02 nov 07 - well hello here i am home with my new baby boy harvey james he weighed in at 6lb 11 oz and all went well with my c section he was born at 1.29 ith no complications at all he is feeding well

we got to hospital for 08.00 and luckily there was one lady booked in before me so not too long await they came for me at 11.45 and took me down to theatre for my spinal what a wierd sensation not feeling my legs lol

once that had worked at 12.05 i was wheeled into the theatre room where they started the operation and at 12.29 our little boy was born !

09 Nov 07 well our little Harvey is now ten days old already i cant believe it how fast it has gone i am recovering quite well can walk round the house with less pain not been out yet or able to drive which is doing my head in as i am normally quite active but he put on weight nicely he now weighs 7lb 5oz and loves his feeds.

24th Nov 07 ell harvey is just over 3 weeks old cant believe it time is going so fast he has put loads of weight on now weighs 9lb 7oz loves his food as you can tell.

15.01.08 well i have updated this for a long time how time flies well harvey is nealy 3 months old boo hoo cant believe it, its all going far to fast for me i want time to slow right down he weighs13lb 14oz and sleeping is not to bad at night still feeding near enough every 4 hours but sometimes will go 5 and 6 hours at night so cant complain he has his second lot of injections next fri he was ok after the first lot so im hoping it will be the same again.

25 feb 08 god it seems ages since i wrote on here and trying to keep it up to date well harvey is 17 weeks old tomorrow boo hoo its going way to quick the little baby i had is fast turning into a little boy who will be rolling over soon the baby features seem to have gone so quick were not planning on anymore so i have to make the most of everyday with him. latest pics see below xxx
