    Well DH said he doesn't want us ttc till at least next October, poo hoo! He siad he wants to let Pheen be the baby for a while and then I can have my way with him, mwah ha ha ha!!!I wanted to start ttc now but I do see his point and he thinks I wuld be stressed out to much with 2 kids under 2 and that I can enjoy each baby sepratley if I let them be the baby for at leats the first 2 years. I cant argue with that as I dont want to feel stressed all the time and without a spare hand, not fair on the babies or my dh and my relationship because I will never have time for just him and I .


    So I will have to enjoy everyones else pregnancy.


    I feels so sad now.

    Hi cuties,
    I had a great weekend, took bub & went to stay with a girlfriend. Drank many cups of tea AND had several glasses of wine, did lots of chatting! I had organized Father's Day in advance with pressies and then was home Sunday evening. Amazingly the house was quite clean.
    Did food shopping today, just waiting for the babies to have their naps.

    Hi girls it has been a busy weekend. My little guy was sick yesterday - he is better today but I am sooo tired. Today has been a write off! My hubby is cooking dinner (Thai) and I am hiberbnating in my room away from all the busyness. Hubby came home early from work and I managed to have a nap this arvo. Bliss.

    Tell me about dentists here - hubby went today for a filling and it cost $250. Is that normal? In NZ is don't cost that much - does medicare cover anything? What about insurance?

    Halltribe, sorry to tell you that that is within normal range for dentistry, especially if your dh had a large filling. No, Medicare does NOT cover any of it. If you have private insurance with dental cover, then it will be paid (at least partly paid) by your health fund. sniff, I KNOW.

    Girls I do NOT do canteen! any more, that is. I used to when I had only two kids! I tell everyone including my kids, that it's impossible with little ones. It's a violation of health rules to have them in the canteen anyway. Also I hate the way that it eats up (pun!) four hours in the middle of the day.

    Thanks Castle - I think I will have to put money aside especially for dentist bills! What about dental work/checkups for kids??

    Nope, same. Not covered. Some dental care is provided by the states, in a very limited way, for very poor people. Don't hold your breath looking for that. Checkups are usually about $75-$100 for mine....for a cleaning, exam by the dentist, and a fluoride treatment. Dental care is very important to me so I don't mind that. It's cheaper to do that, than pay for dental bills later to fix problems.
