Ben’s tube surgery was yesterday morning, and boy, you all weren’t kidding about how quick it was. We got there at 6:45. They took him in at 7:38, and the doctor came out to tell us he was done at 7:45! We waited a few more minutes, and then they came to get us when he was waking up. He was screaming and pretty upset for about 15 minutes, but I was able to get him to nurse, and that helped calm him quite a bit. We left after the 30 minute recovery period, and were home in time to take Claire to preschool.
About half way home, he really bounced back, and seemed fine for the rest of the day. He was sleepy, but otherwise that’s it.Unfortunately, he still was up at 6 this morning!
I’m not sure what’s going on there, but I was really hoping that the tubes would help him sleep better. He used to sleep great at night until the ear infections. Hopefully, he’ll get back on track soon.Anyway, just wanted to post an update. We are hoping for fewer doctor’s visits and more sleep in our future!!!Yep, 6:30 riser here too!!! I guess that’s what you get with a 7:00 bedtime.
Anyway, sooooooooo glad to hear that everything went well and I hope this makes all the difference for him!!!
Great news! I’m happy to hear all went well.
Hopefully he’ll start sleeping a little later soon. If it was the ears causing him to wake early, it may have become a habit and will take some time to break. Myles was a very early riser (5am!) for a long time, then 6 am for months on end. Now he sleeps until 7 almost every day with just a brief waking between 5 and 6 in which he puts himself back to sleep within a few minutes. So, there is hope!
