Stinky recently went in for major dental work on the 31 of January. A total of 3800 for dental work..ON HIS BABY TEETH!!! I feel like a bad mom that so much has went wrong with his teeth but I PROMISE I do brush his teeth!! Even after spending so much on his dental work last week he woke up Screaming!!(And that is NOT like him at all) and wanting me to kiss his ear and neck. While doing so I noticed that his right side of his face was swollen like crazy. I was just getting ready to walk out the door for work so I called in. I called the dentist 1st to see what they thought I should do. I didn't think it would be tooth related cuz like I said we just spent a crap load of money to fix his teeth. But his dentist told me to bring him in just so he could take a look and make sure none of the crowns have broken off. When we got there the dr looked around and came to the conclusion that one of his teeth has become abscess.!! So now he has to go in on the 4 of April to have his tooth pulled!!!!! I get tears just thinking about it! he is only 2 for crying out loud and he is not having good luck with his teeth! The dentist said he has a enamel deficiency it isn't anything we did just he has weak enamel and then when he went through his grinding teeth kick it just destroyed his lil teeth.
I am so worried how his adult teeth will come in!! This all stinks more cuz we still don't have insurance for the boys. The state says we make just a lil too much for the medical card you pay for..Like 300 to much. They don't take into account that Bill has to pay almost that into child support.. I have been doing research about health insurance and even talked to someone that sells insurance to individuals. Yes you can get a low payment..But is is a outrageous deducible and the more you use the insurance at the end of the year they will raise the payment on you!! and it don't include dental!! (which obviously I need) I am getting insurance through my work but they don't have open enrollment isn't until June 1!! It will cost us about 160 a month but I think it will be worth it in the long run.
I love being a mom but sometimes it is so stressful figuring everything out! All these people at my work talk about how it is so easy having kids..They don't take into account that they have medical card...food stamps...child care....half of my check goes to day care alone...stupid people don't realize how much out of pocket it cost when you don't get assistant!!!
WELL That is my rant..Guess I needed to get it off my chest lol. And since only 3 people read this you all get to Liston to me vent :)
Will let you know how it goes on the 4 hoping he don't have to much pain!!!!!!!
