On friday, I was at work and then all of a sudden, my jaw feels like it's gonna lock up. I try to close it, and it makes this horrifying clicking sound followed by pain. Lots and lots of pain. I know what some of you are thinking about this lock jaw thing-- get your head out of the gutter, cause it's not like that. I have TMJ, which anyone can bascially get from grinding your teeth in your sleep; which I do a lot when I am in a lot of stress. My stress right now comes in the form of a 13th month old who is in teething hell right now. Anywho, I go to the dentist and he prescribes me some muscle relaxers and tells meI need to see a specialist. He then informs me that I also have FOUR cavities. Mind you, I had NO cavities the last time i went to the dentist (When I was just 6months preggers with Ava). I have no idea how someone can possibly get that much cavities in that short of a time. I always used to tease (used being the key word) the ltttle kids who have silver for front teeth. Now I feel their pain. Like a little kid with silver front teeth, I to have a weakness for sweet things and a bad habit of not brushing after I eat it (gross I know). I guess the good thing about this cavity business is that the next time you see me, like the little kids, I too will probably have little bit of bling in the mouth.
I guess I'll finish this blog off with a little picture of the baby back before teething and sleepless nights. Here's to all the parents with crazy teething babies!! I salute you!
Love, the Eskarans!
