That's what I'm worried about. The noise and stuff. She hates doctors office, hates the hospital, hates loud noises, hates vacuum cleaner sounds. I think I'll call her pediatrician on monday

The conscious sedation put my son to sleep. He went in wide awake and when they pulled him out he asked what was wrong. They told him they were all done and his response was but you just put me in. He was unaware that 45 minutes had passed.
