Well my fears have come true - we spent the morning in the city with a paed. dentist as it's gotten worse - even though we are brushing like mad with special toothpaste, Marisa needs to have a general anaesthetic to have some work done I already know I am going to be a big mess!

She has a couple of small pits in some back molars, which need to be semi filled, and some smaller ones have started on her bottom front teeth (from the back). They will also fissure seal the teeth so they will be protected in future. The dentist was really good, he tried to reassure me that these things do happen and babies can just be born with problem teeth, but still, I wish she didn't have to have an operation for it all!!! Argh!!!

My sister is a dental nurse who knows this specialist and she is trying to get into the Op to help out, so I will feel somewhat better... but I know I will be a nervous wreck anyway... maybe I will go into early labour lmao... it's all booked for October so will try to remain calm until then. Oh well... fingers crossed all will go smoothly. I am sure it will, but you know, when it's your own bubbas... you always worry about the worst case scenario!

Time for caffiene LOLOL... pleeeeease guys don't go through this... as soon as your little one has it's first tooth erupt - make brushing fun and get them excited about brushing!!! Harder said than done I know LOL but it's amazing how many people don't realise brushing needs to be introduced as soon as the first tooth comes through.
