Wisdom teeth…ouch!

Tuesday, August 19th, 2008

I had my wisdom teeth out Saturday. I was able to be put out, which I think is really fun to be totally out and not remember anything! Recovering has not been as much fun though. Jimmy has taken the best care of me and Zeke while I’ve been down, and family have been so caring too. I came home, and felt nauseous, but I really didn’t want to throw-up. Finally I did, and it hurt so bad, then a few hours later again, and after a few hours, again! I didn’t even have much in my tummy which made it worse. Jimmy has an uncle who is a Pharmacist, and he was so nice to come over late Saturday night and bring me some anti-nausea medicine, along with some Jell-o, Sprite, Tylenol, apple sauce, and chicken broth. Thanks so much Uncle Eric and Aunt Peggy! I stopped taking the Lortab (sp?), and switched to the Tylenol, and I haven’t thrown up since.

I have enjoyed listening to Jimmy and Zeke play all day. They have had a lot of fun, but it also makes me happy to know I was missed. Every time Zeke walked by our bedroom door I would hear him say, “mommy” and he would knock. He came in to visit me a lot. When I would get up, he liked to imitate me…

Where’s Zeke?

I really underestimated the recovery time I needed. I thought I would be able to go to church the next day, and be back to normal. Jimmy took Monday off of work to care for Zeke and me, and I’m so thankful he did. My cheeks puffed up so huge, and it still hurts, but I’m getting my strength back. It sure made me appreciate my health.

Questions: (if you comment, please answer the following)

How long was your wisdom teeth operation recovery?

Were you put out?

Did you throw up after?

Funny faces

Zeke’s smiley faces are my favorite!

I LOVE how his eyes go in to half moon shapes when he smiles so big!

This one turned out funny, he looks sad, but he was smiling, and laughing. He loves to make Jimmy and me laugh, especially when we’re all eating dinner.

He tried getting in through the top…

He tried getting his right hand through the door…

“Hmm, maybe I can squeeze in through the back door.”
