I've said for the past 8 years that going to the gynecologist beats going to the dentist any day. Some of you may completely disagree, and that's okay. Some of you may just keep quiet, as you don't know what it's like to have a "girly" appointment, and that's okay, too. Just trust me. :)
I absolutely HATE going to the dentist with every single ounce of my being. HATE IT. Thankfully, that harsh apprehension hasn't fallen upon Maya, yet. Although she was a little uncomfortable, she was trooper, just as I expected.
Maya was dead set against laying down in the chair. She was fine as long as she could sit up...so her ultimate position ended with Mommy and Dr. Frazier sitting in chairs, face-to-face, with Maya's legs straddled around Mommy and her body laying down on Dr. Frazier's lap. :) And the technology...totally makes me jealous. Each chair has a flat screen on the ceiling, and Maya was given a choice of what she wanted to watch. Of course, she chose Dora, the "Explore Or" lol...however, she wouldn't put the headphones on, so she just watched in silence. :)
Dr. Frazier was able to convince Maya that "Swiper" was in her mouth and needed to be "scared away," so finally Maya decided open her mouth and Dr. Frazier had her fingers in there doing the job before Maya even knew what was going on. This was one time that I was actually GLAD she takes after her dad's tv habit, as she totally got "lost" in watching Dora.
Although they weren't successful at convincing Maya to let them clean her teeth (when asked, she boldly stated, "Absolutely NOT!"), they were able to "count her teeth" and put some enamel strengthener on...and the end result??? MAYA IS IN THE "NO SUGAR BUG CLUB!!!"
You can see her name as soon as they get it posted on the No Sugar Bug Club website!
Hope you're all well!
Big Love,
Sarah
