The Australian actress, who announced last week that she is 15 weeks pregnant to husband Chrys Xipolitas, said that the news that she is expecting her first baby came as a surprise to everyone.
Nicodemou told The Daily Telegraph: "I sprung it on them like I did everyone else, so they're rewriting as we speak. The producer knew because I had to go through IVF. I don't know what they're going to do."
There have been rumours of a "baby" plot line between her character Leah Patterson-Baker and Summer Bay's resident bad boy Brax (Steven Peacocke), but Nicodemou said: "I think maybe we should get a new character in. I think Leah should have a one-night stand. I think she needs to live a little."
The 34-year-old star said that her decision to undergo IVF treatment in order to conceive was the "best thing" that she has ever done.
"I'm a control freak and I started getting really stressed about not falling pregnant," she said. "But the minute I decided to do IVF, it took all that stress away and you feel more in control. Now I'm really calm. I think I'm the most relaxed I have ever been."
Nicodemou's character Leah suffered a miscarriage last year after falling pregnant to friend Miles (Josh Quong Tart).
