Nora had tubes put in last Friday. We were at the hospital (Children's West in Minnetonka) at 7am...she had surgery scheduled for 8am. It literally took 5 minutes from the time we left her until the Dr came out to say the tubes were in! She had a cold (runny nose, slight cough) and that caused a little trouble when she came out of anethesia. She needed a neb treatment when she was waking up from the anesthesia...so I think that held us up from seeing her a little bit. She was wide awake when we saw her and she was excited to see mom and dad! The nurse said the problems with her breathing were most likely due to her cold and the anesthesia being an irritant, as her lungs sounded fine.
I spent the day at home with her and she was herself the entire day! She was quite the trooper (but it wasn't that intensive of a procedure). Regardless...we're hoping this keeps her ears clear and we can have less infections this winter!
Nora is 10 months old today!!
