Georgia's Surgery




My sweet baby girl had to have minor surgery a few weeks ago - a frenulectomy to be exact. We discovered a few months ago that she was very slightly tongue-tied, and while our pediatrician wanted to take the "wait and see" approach and didn't think it would at all interfere with her speech, Kevin and I made the decision to go ahead with the surgery before there was even a possibility of a speech problem developing. With our history of Sam's difficulties, I wasn't about to wait around to see if Georgia would have a problem. So long story short, the procedure took about 5 minutes, and we were back home in time for Sam to go to school. She did great, was loved on by all of Daddy's friends in surgery, and never even had to take any Motrin at all!! Sooooo glad this is over and behind us! And from the look of things, the surgery was a complete success - she's been sticking her tongue out at everyone she sees!
