Dental Hygeine: Day 7

Week 1 in review!

This, I have to admit, may not have been the most interesting habit to start with, but with everything I have learned about it to date, may be one of the most important.

This first week has really highlighted the reasons I have previously been so bad about brushing and flossing, I have no real schedule many days, and I get tired, stay up too late goofing off, and then rush to get to bed when I realize that it's 11pm, the LO is gonna need to be nursed (and maybe again at 2, and maybe again at 5) and if I don't get to bed RIGHT NOW, I am not gonna get enough sleep.

The cold hasn't helped the crazy lack-of-schedule, as I have done way more sleeping than usual, and my sickest days have been spent entirely in my PJs. I am happy to report that the antibiotics seem to be doing their job, and I feel a great deal better.

But, despite all that I have 6 days with twice a day brushing and flossing to be proud of. My teeth feel better, my gums don't bleed when I floss, and I think I am making real progress. Funny how really focusing on something can make a difference.

**Daily report, day 6***

Yep - another successful day yesterday! These daily reports are gonna get boring if I don't screw up soon. :)

My teeth feel REALLY Good.
