My 4 yr old is having surgery - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Poor baby

My stepson had his adenoids and tonsils out when he was around 6 years old. He still gets sick all the time, though

He's now 17 and gets strep a few times a year.

Prayers going up for your baby's surgery to be smooth as silk

oh I'm so sorry. I'll keep both of you in my thoughts.

I had tubes put in 7 times. I had HORRIBLE hearing when I was really young (I was actually born almost completly deaf). As I got older, my hearing got better, and after the last time they fell out (about 5-6 years ago) I haven't needed them. Just make sure that she wears ear plugs whenever she's around water! I used a swimmers headband, and it covers the ears so that she can't get water in them, but she can still hear you when you talk.

Saying a prayer for Olivia (love that name).
Hugs to you and her.

Thank you everyone for the prayers, hugs, and good thoughts.

Hopefully she will feel lots better after this!

awww my son had his tonsils out when he was 3, and you will be amazed at how fast they bounce back! Fortunately, we were able to avoid the tubes in his ears by putting him on antibiotics for a week before he had his tonsils out.

I will keep your little one in my prayers!

awww poor baby you will all be in our prayers

my son was 1 before he had tubes in his ears he for the most part couldnt ever hear anything. he woke up in recovery cried and as soon as he seen me it was all better on the way home he freaked out on everynoise he heard. when he was 6 he had adnoides and tinsiles removed that was hard on him but it only took a few days and he was ok, then he over did it and was right bk to square one again for a few days.

Thoughts and prayers for both of you. My kids had that done too, but the ice cream when ever they wanted made them feel better

Everything will be OK, I bet she even shares her ice cream with you.

She'll do fine, you'll be a mess, that will be the longest 30 minutes of your life. My Grand-d had tube's & tonsils/adenoids out when she was 2. She's 4 now and no more infections and her ears are fine. Prayers for you both.
