I don’t know if this will make you feel any better but I went back with S to the operating room when they put the mask on to sedate her and she still freaked the f out, so I don’t know if being with him until he’s out would be any better. Same. And feeling them go limp is freaky.. |

I just spoke to the doctor. He will be watching a show with a mask on until he falls asleep.

wedding lfig O is having his surgery this Friday. I’m so nervous. I just found out that we aren’t present when he goes under. They wheel him away and he goes under anesthesia after we are separated. He is going to flip out. I thought i would be present until he is put under so he won’t know I’m not with him. What was it like for your kids? Am i freaking out over nothing? I seriously just cried when i got off the phone with the nurse from the surgery center. B has been put under twice and I haven't been there for it either time. He was 2, so probably even more inclined to freak, but did fine both times. In both cases they had us waiting in the recovery room so we were there when he woke up. I believe that is the procedure at the hospital here, as well. |

snoopmommymom, I think that's probably the best. Hopefully the ipad will distract him enough that he will be ok. When B was sedated they had me go back with him and hold him down. It was awful and I kept thinking I didn't want him to equate being that scared with me, so I kind of wished they had a nurse do it. He is going to do great.
