wisdom teeth?

Would it be a bad idea to go and get my wisdom teeth out while Im on maternity leave? They have not bothered me my whole pregnacy but ofcourse have started up again.  I was suppose to get them out last June but my OB recommended not to do it once I found out I was pregnant.  So the ? is now when do I?

When I had mine out, my face got so swollen (literally like a ballon), and I was in pain for over a week! They did have to cut them out though. Did yours actually grow in? I guess it might not be quite as bad if they didn't have to be cut out. Anyway, for me it was quite painful, and I definitely wouldn't have been able to take care of a newborn while on the crazy pain meds

A friend of mine got hers taken out a week after she had her baby back in October.  I thought she was crazy...considering she had an emergency c-section with her baby too, but she did just fine.  She wasn't breastfeeding because her baby had really bad tongue-tie so her taking pain meds for her wisdom teeth being yanked wasn't a big deal either.

I was so miserable when I got one wisdom tooth pulled I can't imagine being able to take care of my DS after getting it done! I have my two top left but they haven't been bothering me and was told they might not need to come out! But if they ever do, I will be recovering at my parents so someone else can watch DS!!!

The bottom ones have come in a little but I think they will still have to dig.  My tops have not but they said they should do all of them.
