Austin went in for a surgery a few days after getting back from our Idaho trip. He was born with a bump on the back of his head. After taking him to a general surgeon, it was diagnosed as a cyst. The doctor said that it was more of a nuisance than anything. Over time the cyst would fill with fluid and have to be drained. Getting it removed sounded a lot more appealing. We were a little nervous having him go in for this surgery, since he was only 10 months old. They wouldn't let him have anything to eat or drink after 4am, and the surgery didn't take place until 9:45am. I thought for sure Austin would be freaking out since his normal routine consists of food and drink often, but he actually did very well. He was such a happy camper before the surgery, but not so much coming out of it. The nurses couldn't get him to calm down after the surgery, so I suggested they give him a bottle of formula. The nurse wouldn't allow anything but water, but my doctor was fine with formula. After a few minutes of the doctor and nurse arguing, I was allowed to feed Austin a bottle. He downed 6 ounces of formula like it was nothing. Then he ate a container of squash, graham crackers, and 2 Popsicles. After eating he was fine! Like I said, the kid enjoys food.
