It is so extremely painful to eat right now!! Thursday night my bottom left wisdom tooth decided it wanted to make a bigger appearance. So my entire Easter weekend consisted of Acetaminophen and ice packs. Sleep and life were interrupted every 2 hours, even though Acetaminophen is supposed to last 4 hours. It hurt to eat but if I only chewed on my right side, things were manageable. The gum is swollen so I cant bite down all the way. Now, however, my right side has started causing me pain as well. I guess it was jealous of the left side getting all the attention from the ice pack. So now I can't use my back teeth AT ALL. I attempted to eat an egg salad sandwich at dinner, thinking egg salad is pretty mushy. OUCH! I ended up just eating a bowl of soggy Golden Grahams.
I would really like to just have the teeth pulled, but most dentist wont do extractions on a pregnant woman. So I'm basically screwed until October.
And this has to happen during the most stressful week of the semester. I just wanna go home...and to the dentist.
