Being pregnant is an adventure. Some things are fun; some things aren't.
I just experienced one of those "aren't" things.
I had a regular 6 month cleaning appt at the dentist. I go in and chatting it up with the hygienist..... everything is cool. I sit in the chair, and she reclines me back. She proceeds to start cleaning my bottom teeth.
I proceed to start feeling warm.
Warmer.
And warmer...... now sweating.
I finally tell her we've got to stop for a minute and let me sit up because I'm having a hot flash. Kind lady that she is, she offers to bring a small fan in and let it blow on me. I'm not feeling the appt will get any better and tell her that's all for today.
I told her we'd just have to reschedule for after Baby Boy is born.
I apologized several times and out the door I went.
Chalk it up to one of those random pregnancy quirks.
At least I was good for a laugh for the dentist office during their lunch break.

I think you did the right thing! They say that teeth are really sensitive during pregnancy!
Funny!! I am having a cavity filled next week and I am a little nervous about having to lay back for an extended amount of time!! I was okay when I had my teeth cleaned a couple of weeks ago, but I think this might take a little more time! haha!!
Oh gosh - I feel for you. I tried the very same thing when I was pregnant and got woozy and had to leave. Also, I think gums tend to bleed more when you're pregnant so you escaped that situation, too.
Wow! i've never heard of that, but Suh-weet! I Well, it gives you something to look forward to after his birth!
