good-bye wisdom (tooth, that is)

well, now that i can finally have a little sigh of relief that we have a baby with a heartbeat...my teeth start up again. i am not sure why pregnancy and tooth problems seem to go together for me, but it always happens. on monday, i started having some pain...mind you, i have been told to get these wretched things out at my last 2 cleanings...i just figured that they didn't bother me, so why bother them?! well, then it started...and didn't let up...so, i got an appointment for today. i saw a dentist that i had never seem before and he was an older gentleman that talked to me about each step of the process...which i liked! i got "double anaesthesia" because of swelling and infection...so, i basically couldn't feel from my nose clear around me head! then he did a little "loosening" and it popped right now. i drove home, picked up my antibiotics, and had a frosty. it was time for naps when i got here, so i laid with the boys (propped up as instructed) and fell asleep. well, then i woke up...oh my gosh it hurts awful. i took the 2 extra strength tylenol that i am allowed to have and that hasn't done a whole lot...so, i called in for tylenol 3. aaron is to bring that home and i am hoping it will help?! i can barely even open my mouth. oh, and i forgot to mention...the dear dentist said he could only use 1 piece of gauze for me (not 2) because i had such a small mouth...see proof to all of you that think i have a big mouth! haha ouch
