abb yes i am very lucky i had a girl, we actually tried for a girl, like at the right time of the month correct position, so i am lucky it worked for me, i can not imagine what 5 boys would be like, my boys are actually getting along really well i am lucky, lachlan is just getting old enough to play with cody and not try and take everything off him.
There is always so many posts to read when I've missed a day, it takes a while to catch up.
Taking things day by day with the feeding, and trying not to worry about it. For the last couple of days I have just alternated with breast feeding and express bottle feeding (as sometimes I've felt deflated - and want to make sure Cameron gets enough). We also only do 5 feeds a day, for the last 3 weeks or so it has been pretty much 7am, 10, 1, 4.30 and 8pm. But first and middle feeds are usually bigs one and the last feed we do a rather big bottle.
On the ear piercing, I had this discussion the other day, for one day hopefully when we have a girl. My friend had her daughters done at 1 year, and it seemed to go ok, so I would probably do that to if I had a girl, for her 1st birthday. I had mine done when I was 3 and it took me a while to have my second ones done - as i was scared (as I remembering it hurting). But not against having them done at 6 months either, I'm just a chicken when it comes to needles and things that might hurt. Will probably have to get my husband or mum to take her. I have decided though that Cameron can have his done as soon as he asks (even if he is 2 or 3 years old), as my husband, dad and brother all have theres done - it's kinda the thing for boys to have there left ear pierced in our family.
On having more children, I will definitely want more (would love a girl). It took us 3 long years to conceive Cameron (eventually through insemination), that we are not even bothered to take any precautions. Who knows I may even be pregnant now (it is possible), have not had a visit from AF yet. I would prefer a bit more of a gap, but if its meant to be it is meant to be.
On the teething thing, do they nessarily dribble more. I've been getting a feeling Cameron is starting to teeth, as he has had occassional grumpy for no known reason lately and has got rosy cheeks most of the time. He also constanting is gnawing on his fingers and seems to chomp on my finger when I put it on his gums, but he is not drooling as much as I thought they usually do.
It funny to think that for me this time last year I was still getting over another negative pregnancy result and yet it was also the beginning of the Cameron journey.
Well better go, Cameron has just woken. Not sure I'll be back for a few days (so I'll have even more to catch up on I'm sure). Will be busy day this arvo and tomorrow (need to get myself all pretty this arvo as it is my birthday tomorrow and will be going over to a friends for morning tea and lunch, then out for dinner at my favourite seafood restraurant).
