Reagan has an abseced tooth. We found it about two weeks ago, but was assured that it was just a normal thing that kids get - a mucus seal. When she got stomach cramps on Thursday, we took her to the doctor. They looked at her mouth and said it was an absece. Grr.
Needless to say, Jim got her into the dentist and they said the tooth had to come out. Not a big deal actually, just not a fun thing to deal with. The infection is below her tooth, there is no root and if we don't get it out, it can damage her adult tooth. Grr again.
Well, I took her to the dentist on Friday afternoon to get it out. The nurse was the one we don't do well with at all. She is never nice to Reagan. As soon as we got in there, she started fussing at Reagan for being too fidgety and a kid. Just made me mad.
She started working with Reagan - she didn't get any nicer when Reagan started to get upset. She got an attitude and I let her know quickly that I wasn't interested in her attitude with my kid. She could find someone else to help.
At that point, Reagan was done. She wasn't going to do it. She was freaked out. The doctor wasn't interested at all either. Needless to say, we ended basically getting kicked out with a recommendation.
Ata the end of the day, I'm actually happy about it. The pediatrician gave us a really good recommendation and I am thrilled. He actually gave me a funny look when I said where we took Reagan. Needless to say, as angry as I was and probably still am at my doctor, they just aren't equipped to work with kids. Hopefully we can get this taken care of next week.
