today i was informed by our dentist for Jackson, he needs half a root canal, cap and 3 other fillings, full xrays and a cleaning.
He would need to be sedated under a general, and regardless of insurance, you are required to pay 1150 upfront before they will even make a booking at the hospital and 99% of cases the insurance does not reimburse this cost.

THESE ARE BABY TEETH! He is one week shy of 3!

can i not just let the bloody tooth fall out on its own??

am i a bad mum for thinking this??

I want my husbands teeth fixed over one little baby tooth!

am i a bad mum for thinking this??

I don't want him to have two general anesthetics in one month.
He is having his facial mole removed this Friday morning.

After the drama of dentist trips, poop accidents, dog eating poop accidents, late naps after WW3 and a baby in a feeding frenzy, then leaving the lights on in the car at the chicken place and having my arse saved by my sister in law who came to jump start the car for us - well, I am ready for a glass of red. I am SO thankful to have family who show up with a smile to jump start my car! In Jackson's own words "YEAHH for Aunty Sharon! She fixed our car!"
