Surgery Tomorrow

Jackson is having both of his tear ducts opened up tomorrow morning. The procedure itself only lasts about 15 minutes. It shouldn't be a big deal, but they do have to put him under for the procedure itself. I am so nervous about having him put under. Every parent is nervous about this kind of thing, I am sure! However, we only know a little bit about the other half of his genetic makeup because he was conceived via a sperm donor. So, I have no clue if any of his genetic relatives/ancestors have a history of anesthesia intolerance. I am sure he will be fine, but I'm just nervous and doing that terrible irrational nervous mom thinking! I am not much of a crier, but I think I might cry after I hand him over tomorrow morning! :cray:

 

Yep, the hardest part is handing them over. My DD had a blocked tear duct removed and everything went smoothly. I am sure he will be fine. Hang in there. :hug99:

 

Erin-I will be thinking about you guys!!! Please update as soon as you can!

 

:hug99: Hang in there!!! It might just be harder on You than him!!! :hug99: Good luck!! Let us know how it goes!!

 

You will both be in my thoughts.

:love0028: OMGOSH, I think I'd be a wreck too. It'll all be over before you know it and he won't even realize what happened. I'll keep you all in my thoughts today too. Best of luck, keep us updated. :love0028:

 

Lots of luck. :hug99:

 

I can't blame you a bit for being nervous!! I hope all goes well.

 

Erin :hug99: Let us know how it goes. Meara goes in to have her's opened tomorrow morning (friday) and I'm a freaking nervous mess too. I know its a simple procedure, but ACK!!! MY BABY!!!

 

Good luck, I know how stressfull that is on the waiting Mommy. My DD is also having surgery tomorrow, so I'll think about all you other moms (and Dads) sitting there stressing and waiting with me!

 

I hope all went well this morning. :hug99: I would be a nervous wreck too if it were me in your shoes.

Please update us as soon as you can!

My little Kerry also had this done - I swear for her it was easier than getting her immunizations. Not so easy for mommy!

All my best,
Mia

 

Aw! I'm so sorry you're stressing over it though I completely understand. He's a tough guy, he'll do great! :hug99:

 

Erin, your concern is understood here amongst us Mommas. :hug99: I'm sending lots of luck for your little guy tomorrow!! :hug99:

 

How did it go?

 

everything go ok? Bryan had his done at a year- it was so easy- I was shocked! And I LOVE that we haven't had any problems since!

 

Hi Erin,

My Jackson is having his done in July. I have heard it is no big deal once it is done with. I can totally understand your worries. Please let us know how it goes and feel free to pm me if you think there is something I should know before we get ours done.

Hugs,
Amy

 

My boys both went through surgeries for inguinal hernias last summer and it was absolutely nerve-wracking, so I know what you're going through! It was so much worse on DH and I than it was on them, they recovered so quickly.

Hope everything went well for your little guy!
