Adding stress to my 2ww, dentist.

I just came back from my routine cleaning at the dentist. It was SO horrible. I have a million cavities! Two "major" "deep" ones that "must be filled" whether I'm preggo this cycle or not.

Because they are deep they really have to use anesthesia, and the OB may not be happy with it, even if it's the epinephrine-free one. So we'll see how this goes. I'm actually HOPING I'm NOT preggo this month so I can have this taken care of! Plus it would give my body an extra month to get back on track after my m/c (the doc approved our ttc again right away since my transvag u/s came back perfect so my uterus completely healed on it's own but it would still be nice to see af before conceiving again).

The hygenist was so upset over it, because it's been years and years and years since I had cavities, and I have my teeth checked and cleaned every 6 months... but the difference is that I sucked on a lot of mints the past 6 months, and right by my cheek on both sides are where the cavities are.

I'm so upset! So now if I get a bfn, it will actually be a relief. I'll probably test Thurs & Fri, 11 & 12 dpo. I'm soooooo stressed out, as if I needed any more stress in the 2ww, right?

Either way, I'm sure we'll work this out, it just sucks to have to worry about it. Oy.

o Big Hugs i know how you feel a bout three months agaio i went in and got my teeth cleaned and they tell me i have to have my wisdome teeth out well i needed to have it done as soon as posible because were deciding on getting out of the military that means no inshurance and if i did get pergo later they wouldnt do it. i was just at the start of my TWW. turned out for the betteri wasent prego. but because i though i had a chance of being prego (we have the best BDing timing a couple could get) i dident take any pain meds because i was scared to. other than the anstesia they gave me to have them extracted. i had to have three of them cut out. I wish you the best of luck it will be alright everything will work out for the best. I said a prayer that morning for God to protect the baby if i was pregnant. Ill say one for you too. Big Hugs
