It's funny you should say that, because my dentist says the same thing, but I consider myself a bit of a wuss. Not that I can't tolerate a certain amount of discomfort if I have to, but I'm jumpy, always ask for anesthetic, tense up at needles etc. But back when I was a new mother it wasn't until DS starting sleeping through the night that I realized I had been mildly depressed for almost two years.

I'm going back and forth on whether to ask for thyroxine or not. I'm a very light sleeper, so I don't particularly want something that might cause me to be even more "alert". And I'm not too happy about the idea of medication for life, until I know I need them. Ah well. Dr.s app on Thursday, I'll see what she says. Will probably end up with wait and see, come back in three months.
