March 4th- Regular ortho appt
March 6th- Pre-Op appt with surgeon
March 10th- 2nd surgeon appt
March 14th- Ob/gyn
March 17th AM- Ortho
March 17th PM- Cavity filling
March 18th- Ortho
March 22nd- Eye doctor's appointment
March 24th- JAW SURGERY

But here we are.

Hospital called this morning to verify that I will need to report to the hospital at 5 a.m. for my 7:30 a.m. surgery time. 

DEEP BREATHS. I should have known my nerves would be this bad. Should have asked the surgeon for some anxiety meds, but I didn't want another reason to stop breastfeeding, lol.

Yes, I'm really nervous. Thankfully I'm going to be sooo super busy this weekend. My mom's coming over tonight to make sure I have everything packed that I need and take some supplies to her house where I will be staying for a few days.

Saturday I have an eye doctor appointment and a night out with the girls. Hibachi dinner! I can't wait!

Sunday is my father-in-law's bday celebration up north. Hopefully be home early so everyone gets a good night's rest (haha, right).

Then my mom will be over to take over Amelia duty around 4 a.m.! I'm sure it won't take us an hour to get there (probably like 30 min, lol), but I'm super early girl. Always. Unfortunately that means more time to be nervous. Ugh. I'll have my hubby there so hopefully he can talk me down, but that's unlikely. The lady from the hospital was SO NICE on the phone and told me that they try to do everything they can to make their jaw surgery patients at comfortable as possible including private rooms where Jonny could stay. So I'm hoping that happens.

I need to prepare everything for Amelia, too. Just bottles, but I know my mom can handle it. Just need to make sure she knows where everything is in my house for Monday/Tuesday, lol.

I'll leave you with a cutie pie pic! :) 3 more days!!!!!

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.
