Dentist and Blonde Childbirth

I had to go an visit the dentist - again -today. And once more they used the Magic Wand on me. I wasn't as worried this time so perhaps Boyfriend is in for a treat?

ahem - anyways... I seem to be one of those strange people who doesn't really react to anesthetics. That's not a lot of fun. They injected it/me once... waited.... Iwas numb but could still feel a lot of pain. They injected another shot of whatever it is they use... and waited... and it was still as painful.

The nurse and dentist then discussed whether I should have a third injection. At this point I wasn't too bothered as I'd already had 2 needles inserted so a third would have been ok but apparently a third wasn't "advised".

They finished sorting it out and then let me go with a cheerful: "It might be good to let people know you're one of those weird ones who'll need more anesthetics than usual... especially if you're planning on childbirth."

Childbirth?!

Am I missing something? Please don't tell me they come out of the mouth nowadays. I haven't even come to terms with the old-fashioned entrance/exit...

I need to talk to Boyfriend. He should know. He's a doctor... I knew I should have paid more attention in school. Holy shit and Godly sandals, I'm scared now!
