Trip to the Dentist
I took Dakotah to the dentist this morning to have 2 fillings done. I wasn't quite sure how she would handle it. Thought she might freak out if she saw the needle coming at her. I must say that she handled it like a trooper. She let out a few little squeals when they first gave her the novocaine but then she was fine. I was fully expecting her to cry her eyes out because she is such an emotional kid. She fooled me. She sat there and did everything that she was supposed to do. I was so proud of her. She got to pick a prize when she was done,too.
Now normally when you have novocaine you feel like your mouth is 10 times the size it should be. From my experience,I try not to talk for a while until it starts wearing off because it feels so weird. Not Dakotah!! She ran her mouth non-stop. It was kind of amusing to sit and listen to her because she kept saying that her mouth felt weird but she would keep talking. The child needs a mute button!
All in all the trip to the dentist was a success for her and I am glad that she did such a great job! That's my girl........Labels: kids
