Evil Twin's Wife reminded me of a post I should of done on Monday. I took Baylee to the dentist to get some sealants put on her back teeth. It's like toothpaste that they paint on to protect the teeth from getting cavities. She needed them because she has very deep crevases in her back teeth.
Let's remind everyone that Baylee LOVES going to the dentist. I reminded her that she wasn't getting any pokes and they were going to paint her teeth today.
We also needed to see Dr. Caple because Baylee knocked her top tooth out on Saturday at a birthday party. He was going to do an x-ray (which she had before) to make sure nothing was left in there.
So, she's laying in the chair letting Dr. Caple get started and all of a sudden the tears start flowing and she starts SCREAMING.
I pulled her to the side and explained again that it was going to hurt that he was going to do an x-ray and paint her teeth. She was NOT having it for whatever reason.
So, we stormed out of there and got in the car.
My point is that she is old enough to know when I say it's not going to hurt it's not going to hurt. I am always honest with her when it comes to that. And, it took me 3 months to get that appointment... now we will have to wait another 3 months! UGH! I feel like I shouldn't be upset, but I was SO mad yesterday!
So, we had a long talk when we got home after she calmed down. I explained to her that she has got to trust what I say. She said to make another appointment and she would go! :)
Gotta love kids!

Omphalocele and PPH/RVH
This page is for Baylee and Blair. Blair was born with a Giant Omphalocele on April 7th, 2008. She spent 7 weeks in the NICU at AR Children's. Amazed by the Dr's she came home at the end of May only on a little bit of O2 and no other medications. She was also diagnosed with a 3mm VSD of her heart. That has since CLOSED COMPLETELY and will not require surgery. Recently we found out that she was born with her heart on the right side of her chest. She had surgery on Aug. 20th without expanders. The Dr's were able to do a closure surgery with a bit of alloderm pulling the muscles together. We will be in St. Louis for a few weeks while she recovers.
Baylee is an energetic 4 year old. She loves swimming, her babydolls, playing outside and most of all her little Sissy! She is our little princess and we have been amazed at how well she has reacted to her little Sissy. She is WONDERFUL to her little sissy and loves her so much!
She was diagnosed on April 13th with a Right Ventricular Hypertrophy due to Primary Pulmonary Hypertension. In July we traveled to Boston to see a Hypertension Specialist. I LOVE this Dr! She is wonderful and answered all of my questions. She will have another Heart Cath on Dec. 1st to check the pressures in her heart again. She is now sleeping with a bit of oxygen just as a precautionary.
I hope that everyone enjoy's reading about our lives and if you learn something in the process that's even better!

Hope she remembers that when the time comes!!!
Ugh! I know how hard those appts are to come by! I hope she will cooperate with you next time! :-)
Kids and their phobias! Charlie doesn't like to have his diaper changed in the back seat of the car. Doesn't matter that I keep telling him, he's not going to fall on the floor--he doesn NOT like it!
Oh I hate that when you have child freakout time! I'm surprised they just didn't give her a little nitric to calm her down!
Oh, yeah. The meltdowns might get fewer as they get older, but when they do occur, look out!
