1st trip to the dentist...

May 14,2009

Back in May the triplets had their first checkup at the dentist...

They all did EXTREMELY well and had the office talking about how well behaved they were - whew! Each baby had a set of x-rays done and got a complete checkup and cleaning. At first they weren't too sure about laying down but the dentist had them watch her check out London and then they were cool with each having a turn.

London taking one for the team!




Logan's turn




Lauren (the boys were asked to help which they thought was pretty neat)




Lathan



It was noted in their charts that they all have excellent dental hygene and best of all NO CAVITIES!!! All three had signs of their prematurity and from the magnesium iv I was on the 6 weeks before they were born...she said that she could tell Logan and Lauren had trauma to their teeth during development causing a lack of enamel (the good news is that this only affects thier baby teeth). Lauren's top lip was damaged due to being intubated and the roof of Lathan's mouth has a defined ridge from where his vent tube pressed against his forming gums. None of it is serious and could obviously be much worse so we're once again counting our blessings!

They weighed and checked heights for each little ones and since this was just days after their birthday, I'm documenting these as their offical 3rd birthday stats! (not great pics...these were all taken from my cell phone!)

Lathan 37lbs 39 1/2"




Lauren 28lbs 38 1/2"



Logan 32lbs 37 1/2"
