Spacing issues

Had an adjustment yesterday evening. It was supposed to be my "final wires." But, since I'm not having the jaw surgery for a while... I'm not sure what's going to happen next.

I have this crazy band around my four front, top teeth. It hurts like a bitch. Also has a key on it that will be turned I think at my next appointment in four weeks. I really don't know. He doesn't explain things well sometimes and I just don't care and want to get out of there asap. LOL The tech explained it a little more to me but all everyone wanted to do was talk about babies. Ugh.

Anyway here's a shot of my crazy banded teeth. There was a huge space (still is) between some of the top teeth but he said he did that on purpose so they will pull together nicely. Which is what we are doing right now! Crazy.

The wire thing on the left (technically on my right) is REALLY freaking annoying.
So I will be going back. It's a half-hour appointment next time. I have no idea why. LOL Probably something to do with the band. So unfortunately I have to go in the middle of the day. UGH. Life ruiner. I don't have sick time for this. :( So I'm hoping to come into work and then leave and come back. Annoying and a lot of driving but saves me work sick time.

My teeth hurt pretty badly today. And last night. Just the top row, but that makes it very difficult to chew anything. I'm starving so I'm going to try and eat an English muffin here soon. Good luck me.

I'm yellin' timber...

Honestly... every time I CROSS-OFF an appointment. I add another one. This is getting a little out of control. I thought everything went pretty well on Thursday, but then the resident called me on Friday night to say that we need to RE-DO my upper molds. Sigh. He said that he has NEVER had this happen before and no one really knows what happened? Whatevs. He was SUPER apologetic and says it'll only take a few min. I talked to him last night and he gave me his personal cellphone number and is having me call him when I get there so he can do it right away. He's really a nice guy. I can't be too mad because he's being super nice about it. Even saying I can park in the free lot since it's $5 usually to park in Oakland. Woot. I'm just thankful I can just pop over after work. I know some people travel super far for jaw surgery. Anyway here's my (hopefully final) updated appt schedule. February 20th- Regular cleaning (with my regs dentist) March 4th- Regul...

Day 6

My set-up at my mom's. Vaporizer, for the win! This water bottle also has been amazing! So glad I got that and the jaw bra beforehand. They have both been lifesavers!  My parents and bff gave me the same get well card. Are they trying to tell me something? haha It was amusing. Yesterday was a great day! We had a full house at my mom's. My Uncle even dropped by.. even though it was just to have my dad help him buy movies off of his iPad, lol. My dad made me breakfast and lunch and my sister made me a banana-pineapple smoothie. It was bomb! I wish it weren't so cold or else I could go for more walks but it was a good day yesterday. Jon and the peanut came over, too and we had a ton of fun! I painted my nails rainbow (because I'm awesome) and Uncle Lou Lou played with Millie a lot. Driving in her favorite car! Getting fed by daddy. I miss feeding my baby girl. ;(  I had pureed spaghetti and meatballs for dinner! It's not much to look at, but oh man...

Today!!!

T-4 hours until surgery time! Hubby is driving us to the hospital as we speak! He's a trooper. 4 a.m. Amelia was fit to be tied last night. She was screaming bloody murder while jonny was holding her. It's like she knew I was leaving. Would only calm down with me. So sleep hardly happened last night. I probably got about 4 good hours. Not ideal but what are you gonna do? Especially whenever I had to wake up at 3:15, lol. Okay I think hubby needs help figuring out what garage we're heading to... so this is the last post on this side of things! See ya on the other side! Not as nervous as I thought, but I'm sure there's still a ton of time for that! ;) The photo is me and a friend's newborn. Love him.
