Just re-read above. Yes Rosey we were in for the night and 2 days with DS. He had bronchitis and possibly febrile convulsion. There have been concerns with DS since he was born doing as he does this odd thing with his limbs. Not sure if anyone remembers me saying there were developmental concerns. The paeds said that febrile convulsions can't really be diagnosed until 6months and his very very young for this to be the cause. Especially coupled with the abnormal leg/arm movements his always done. There are concerns there is possibly something else going on like a type of epilepsy. But all brain tests have been normal and so far his meeting all his milestones so that's reassuring. Other then this tremor he does mainly in his legs but in his arms too his completely normal.
DH and I DTD unprotected too only yesterday. I am confident there wont be any surprises. I'm so dried up down there and absolutely no sign of my cycle returning. With my last 2 it took about 6-7months for my cycle to return and DS still feedings every 1-3hrs including overnight. With my poor fertility and multiple losses I am confident there will be no baby coming in 9months. DH vasectomy is happening in July I think.
Yes I get what you mean with the wanting another bub/not wanting another. Sense have prevailed with is. We have 4 and in this day and age 4 is a lot. Financially we can not afford to have another. Its not the baby part that's hard its the schooling, helping out with uni, potentially needing to buy the kids cars (we live a long distance from town), potentially all of them needing orthodontic work etc. Or food bill is enormous. We don't have health care cards and in one week at one stage the 5 of us needed ab's. It was hundreds. Just all those expenses add up. We already do it pretty cheap with clothing and skipping corners with other stuff like hair cuts and holidays. I couldn't do another pregnancy with ease. I feel old now. I feel hagged and I need to start putting some effort into myself. But on the other hand I would love 1 more son. I guess with 3 girls it would be nice to even up the number. I'd like DS to have a brother. But I would never ever have a baby just to get a particular gender. Already I hate the comments we get with DS been the next family name saviour. DH got that. It will take too long to explain. If we had 2 DS's then I don't think it would be such an issue. But we are done. And I am so grateful I got what I wanted eventually. I wanted 4 healthy kids and that's what we have. That's a good feeling.
