Filling Day

What a brave little girl!

Allie went in to have her 3 cavities filled under sedation this morning. She was very hesitant when the nurse gave her the "juice". She took one sip and realized it was not the juice she was expecting. I will say I was worried 30 minutes after having drank the juice, she was asking me to play chase in the waiting room. BUT, once she was in the chair with Mr. Nose, she fell asleep and let the doctor work on her. She woke up a couple of times fighting, crying and making noises I have never heard her make. Really can't blame her....she was restrained in a straight jacket type deal. Allie freaked out when she realized she was being held down against her will. She said "My hands can't breathe". When we got home she was out until 11:30. She still is more lethargic than normal and is back in bed for her 2nd nap of the day. I am so glad we have this behind us. She was such a brave little girl.

I remember doing sedations when I worked for a pediatric dentist. The kids are so pitiful, because they act like they're drunk. What a brave girl you've got! : )
