    Holy Cow Monnie. how absolutely terrifying for you!!! So glad that little Felix is doing well now. DH had encephalitis about 2.5years ago with seizures also and I know how scary that was with an adult, let alone your own little one! I was considering a flu shot and wondered about one for Celeste but maybe I wont do it? Hmmm will have to ask about hers...

    Marcellus, we have a smock type bib too but it's not long enough for her lap really.

    Happy easter everyone.

    Oh Monnie what a terrifying time for you all. I'm so relieved Felix is doing well now though. I hope you are having a wonderful time away for Easter.

    Happy Easter to you all. I hope you are having fun with your families pigging out on chocolate lol.

    Nice avvy Mako - is your DH a super stud or what?

    Am also having second thoughts about the flu shot now too.

    Sazz - I'm planning to sew some more... what colour would you like? Actually, a hood would be good too for the bits he puts in his hair ....I think it's just easier to strip him naked to eat really, just a pity it's getting cooler now.

    Thanks Marcellus lol. I must remember to show DH how hot he looks hahaha...
    I'm also having 2nd thoughts about Sage's flu shot. I got the script the other day but haven't got it filled yet... Just wish I knew what to do

    Hope you guys had a great time Monnie.

    Lol at your DH getting clucky Nic.

    Little A has been standing alone more and more and has even taken a few (accidental) steps recently. Just back from the library with a flip-the-flap book on trucks... what fun!

    Enjoy the long weekend everyone

    WOOHOO Go Mr A What a clever little boy youy are.
    Marcellus Let the fun begin lol. Its harder to keep Sage happy and content in his stroller now he's up and about. Oh and I can forget about trying to carry him anywhere now too lol.

    We are going ok. Not alot happening atm. Although I went and had my WC and Flu shots and I decided to get Sage a Flu shot too and he's been fine. He was very funny at the time though. When the nurse gave him his needle he just looked at her and said "oohh" lol. He was more interested in eating his sultanas

    Yeah, well, I don't think clever comes into it really
    Just hoping he'll wear himself out now and sleep. Met up with my mother's group this morning and he's been asleep nearly 2 hours now....ah, have probably just jinxed myself.
    Sultanas are pretty cool

    Wonderful news Marcellus...it's so much fun watching them toddle about and really start to find their independence!

    Sage is a good boy!!! Eating sultanas and chilling out with his vaccinations! WOW!

    I headed off to my Ob. this week...looking at starting the process for No. 2.

    So...it's back to follicle tracking, HSG's, etc. AHHHHH!!!

    Brings back all those tough memories...although thankfully, having Felix does take the pressure off a bit! Would so love to have another baby...but will just have to see what happens, hey?

    Ob/Gyn. was lovely though... he said "I'm really sorry you have to go through this again...wouldn't it be nice to just fall pregnant without having to do all of this"...

    I so appreciated that!

    Anyway...Felix is having a marathon sleep after his swimming lesson this morning...I think it's been 3 hours now!!!

    Monnie I wish you all the best on your journey of ttc bub #2. How exciting for you but understand where you are coming from re the tough memories. I saw my Ob/Gyn back in March and also discussed bub #2 for us too. I need to get my but into gear and get some bloods done etc to work out where I'm at etc. Might be a little out of whack still as I'm still BF Sage. I have just found out that I can start taking Metformin again as soon as I'm ready as it won't affect Sage. I was worried about it coming through my milk but it won't cause him any harm apparently which is good news. I wasn't prepared to stop BF just so we could try for another bub iykwim.
    DH is very worried about ttc again due to my history of M/C and doesn't want us to go through another one as he told me it nearly "kills" him to see me suffer. We went through a "suprise" M/C only in Feb. We weren't trying for a bub but it just happened but sadly it was pretty much over before we knew about it So it is pretty obvious to us that I need to be back on the meds that helps our bubs stick.

    Anyway Sorry for the long post. I just want to say that I hope bubba #2 isn't too far away for you guys
