tonsils

So we finally had Cadences sleep study and they found issues. Duh. Her tonsils are at +3 which means they are blocking 50 to 75% of her airway.  We go in the 18th to hopefully get a surgery date.

Still not pregnant with our 2nd yet. Going to talk to my ob about fertility drugs. Cady turns 1 next week and we are doing a party on the 19th.

Surgery is scheduled for October 1st. They actually don't know for sure if it's the tonsils causing the apnea or an excess flap of skin over her vocal chords. They will go in and decid then...could be one or both. At least it's at children's hospital.  It makes me feel much more comfortable.  We have a minimum 1 night stay. Recovery should take a week less than an 8 year old dven. So that is good.
