We are going on 18 hours of no pain meds, and Titus is doing great! He will be two weeks post-op tomorrow, and it has been a real struggle to manage his pain levels. We kept thinking he was ready to ease off the ibuprofen and tylenol, but even this past weekend, we were up in the middle of the night with him. Of course, we discovered yesterday that he has an ear infection and sinus infection, so that might also explain it. Poor baby.
But this morning he got up...no hour-long crying spell! He ate breakfast without fussing! My baby is back! He still has copious amounts of nasal secretions (isn't that a nice way of putting it?), but the end is in sight.
In the meantime, we are trying to stay ahead of our packed week of preschool activities--the joys of having two children in different classes. And yes, I know it could be way worse. :) Whenever I ask a parent if they are almost done with school, I get pretty much the same answer: "Yes," answered with the same drawn out tone you would use to describe the end of a dentist appointment involving multiple pulled teeth. Hang in there--the end is near!
