So I'll preface this by first saying I didn't know kids were supposed to go so young. Our regular pedi never recommended a dentist, never asked about a dentist, etc. I knew my kids were probably overdue - but apparently they need to go between 1 and 2? My kids have their first appointments on the 28th. My daughter just showed me her gums around her first permanent tooth are a bit red and inflamed. I'm feeling terrible parent guilt. I asked my husband (who has no dental phobia) to make their appointments and take them last year, but he has ADD and never did it, so now it falls on me, the one who gets physically sick at the dentist, to take them.
I'm frustrated with my H, I'm more frustrated with myself. I'm sure they will have a lot of dental work. Some feedback about taking your kids and how the experience went for them would be helpful.
First step is to correct the mistake and get them in - and I've made the appointment. I can't undo the past, but I can work on protecting their future.
