Tubes and Adenoids

On March 16, 2018 our poor little one went under anesthesia for the third time. This time was for his second set of tubes and removing his Adenoids.  His first set of tubes began to come out around Thanksgiving and he had ear infection after ear infection and had practically been on antibiotics solid sense then, so we decided it was time to do it again.

Due to the fact that he has done this twice already, we could tell he knew what was about to happen.  We had a few embarrassing moments, for example he refused to wear the hospital gown, So we just let him be naked.  And then the nurse leaned down at one point to talk to him, and Kail slapped her right across the face.  We have also been through this enough times now that we got some funny looks in the waiting room as Jordan and I goofed off together, while all the other parents where anxiously watching the status monitor.  All in all, the surgery was quick and Kail didn't have to stay long afterward.  Unlike last time he did have some healing time.  He would keep rubbing his nose and was more whinny then usual but after about a week he was back to sleeping through the night.  We are crossing our fingers that this is the last time we have to do this.
