The day Preston has been dreading finally arrived . . . the start of orthodontic care. :) After two long hours at the orthodontist we made it home to start a diet of non chewy, soft foods. Honestly, he was in quite a bit of pain Tuesday afternoon that even Motrin didn't touch. This morning was rough too and he said it hurt to run so we let him skip soccer practice tonight. He's had LOTS of milkshakes and frostys, applesauce, eggs, and oatmeal. I knew he was in a lot of pain when he said it hurt too bad to even eat pizza! I think the pain might be similar to jaw surgery, but without prescription pain meds . . . but thankfully this time he can actually use a straw and enjoy desserts. Here's to hoping he's much improved tomorrow!
