Final Set of Tubes: "Huh?"

You heard me right! Today Millie had what  I hope to be her final set of tubes placed. After the nurse took us back to the pre op room I told my mom the sad thing about this is this seems so routine. This being her third set of tubes Millie knew the drill. Went straight to the nurse that took her from me and walked back towards the operation room.

Tubes Placed 11/03/2016

My mother and I set in the waiting room and chatted while we waited talking about what's going on in her life and mine as well. Of course still worried and anxious but also knowing the worst part of this procedure is the post op with a confused hungry kiddo.

This surgery was much different  for me emotionally. The first time I wouldn't leave my seat staring at the door waiting for the nurse to come get me. Tearing up because my tiny baby was not by my side. Yes I know it's a 30 min surgery but it's still not fun waiting to find out it went well.

First Set of Tubes

For surgery two they removed her adenoids and placed tubes. So I was pretty nervous about the adenoids because for this procedure she had to have a tube down her throat and an Iv placed. So once again in the waiting room I was cranky and impatient and nervous.

I am glad we completed this as I've been stressing about all the out comes of what I should do for months and months.

I can already see a difference in Millie's hearing. She hasn't said "huh" one time yet today!!!!!!! I couldn't be happier! Hearing huh fifty times a day was getting old and was sooooo annoying!

I honestly feel like this will help Millie is going to feel much better and maybe I won't have to yell for her to hear me!
