Great thread! I'm convinced I'm having another boy (although there is no actual medical evidence or anything 
). I look wistfully at well-behaved little girls of Iestyn's age, and think, well, it's a girl thing. (E.g. in church, we were fine until the vicar's wife had a little girl, 8 months younger than Iestyn. She is (annoyingly! 
) angelic, which really puts Iestyn in a bad light!) My Mum, and my good friend Paula, would both say that boys are easier (but generally dirtier, a bit like dogs!) Mum had two girls, and then a boy. Paula, two boys and then a girl.
Iestyn's been angelic tonight though! He's funny, he's naughty and challenging but often quite straightforward sometimes.
