Very little, if any, is swallowed, thank goodness! Might want to inquire if any other dentists use it. <BR/><BR/>What a day:)Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03926598826215431046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18065716.post-25028282468889887152008-08-14T16:01:00.000-04:002008-08-14T16:01:00.000-04:00I'm so glad you told us this story, though sorry y...I'm so glad you told us this story, though sorry you had to experience it!

At least you didn't have TWO HOURS to drive while Harper sat in puke. I still can't believe you survived that trip.<BR/><BR/>Car seat reassembly is TERRIBLE. I had to do the same this past weekend with Cal's carseat and I was LIVID about it, cursing the carseat the whole time.Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05170500094049647497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18065716.post-1163895423880259102008-08-13T22:39:00.000-04:002008-08-13T22:39:00.000-04:00First of all, I was also at the dentist today. I ...First of all, I was also at the dentist today. I did not have the fluoride treatment today because of the fact I'm pregnant. Today, I was able to skip the nasty foam that makes me excessively salivate. Yippee! Therefore, I did not throw up in my car seat. But I have to say I am looking forward to dealing with my own "tough days at the office" coming very soon in November.Hillary or Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00907559158415883726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18065716.post-68664080808241527642008-08-13T21:54:00.000-04:002008-08-13T21:54:00.000-04:00Wow!

Thanks for the tip.<BR/><BR/>BTW- my days at an actual office aren't generally that tough!

I feel for you -- cleaning disgustingness off car seats is NO FUN, as we learned during a trip to visit my parents in February when both Ruth and I got the stomach flu. Hope the reassembly was successful. See you in a few weeks!! xoxo TracyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18065716.post-57324582952746700302008-08-13T09:18:00.000-04:002008-08-13T09:18:00.000-04:00Holy crap!!!

I somehow got onto your blog from her blog one night in June and have been checking back here and there since then. I must say, reading your entries is like reading a good (and funny) book. Has anyone ever suggested you publish your blog, it would make a great parenting book! Thanks for sharing and not minding that complete strangers get just a little glimpse into your life.<BR/><BR/>-Jen <BR/>stay at home mom of two in WisconsinJenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11573182891432442296noreply@blogger.com
