Here is our Hailey princess. Cute as a bug but sporting 1 extra baby tooth right in the front! Today was the big day - we got up early, took a shower, pulled back her hair, put on some clean and comfy PJs and took what would be her last official picture with her extra tooth!
We got to the surgical center and after some waiting for our turn Hailey got a new shirt to put on and a wagon to have some fun in for a bit while we did some more waiting.The doc came and took her back to the surgery room where they put out the kids with gas they just have to breath in before they start the IV. She willingly went with the nice nurse . . . .and 20 minutes later they came to get us from the waiting room. She slept for a while in another room and once she started to come to they brought her into the room that we were in.
Showing dad her missing teeth!
Enjoying a popsicle :)
A cute smile once the numbing stuff wore off - she was asleep for the actual extraction but they still numb the area like you are at the dentist so that she doesn't have pain right after waking up.
What a gap!
Kind of blurry, but the dentist had to split the fused teeth into 2 pieces and then pull them out. Hailey is quite proud of them and has not really put them down since we have been home :)
Now we just wait! Her permanent tooth could drop down very soon, or it could be a while - we just don't know. Hailey did great - not one whine or tear and we are just happy to have it taken care of while she is young so her permanent teeth can have a chance to grow in 'normally'.
