This chica, pictured with sugar-free gum of course,
lost her mind at the dentist today!!!
She pranced right back like a big girl for her 6 month check up soloou.
Then the hygienist came out to get me and Jay.
She'd obliged on letting the hygienist check her teeth, but she was done after that.
Soooo...Jay walked all around the room opening cabinets and rooting around
while I laid on the child-sized dentist chair, held her down and pried open her mouth.
Thank goodness she'd put her foot down and asked to go in one of the little rooms
rather than with all of the other children since she was declaring,
"I want consequences!"
Maybe it's because she went twice last summer and
the second time she had to be put to sleep to have THREE cavities filled.
I can see how that would be a little traumatizing. :)
I was certainly traumatized by that event since
she came out of anesthesia at home beating me up!
We might wait a little longer than 6 months for our next checkup!

if it makes you feel better, jacks completely LOST it at his last dentist's visit. the hygenist would NOT take him back by herself, and she was actually kind of rude to me. but they didn't want nealy to see him losing it, so they reluctantly sent me to the waiting room to deal with him without me. as soon as i was out of the room, he turned off the histrionics like a switch. no more hissy fit - like magic. he came out happy as a clam. he saves all his big time fun for his mama!
he had to have a cavity filled last summer, and the gas didn't work on him. so that nightmare visit might have had something to do with it.....
