Yesterday Jack had his 2 month appointment with the Pediatrician. He's still emotionally scarred from all of the shots! Okay... actually he's fine, but I'm probably going to need therapy. It's SO HARD watching your tiny baby get stuck with needles!
Jack had to get 3 vaccines - 1 administered orally and 2 shots. He has had 2 prior vaccine shots before, but this was the first time that he had to get stuck multiple times! Look at him's little leggy!
And he's even getting some meat on those thighs!
Actually, Jack did great! He's such a trooper! After mugging for the nurse and his ped he took the shots like a champ. He only cried for about a minute. I had tears in my eyes for longer than he did!
The doctor said he's nice and healthy, but he is just a little guy!
Here are his stats:
2 months: 10lbs 9oz and 22 1/2 inches
He's 50th percentile for his height, but only 25 for his weight! He does NOT get this from me!
For comparison:
1 month: 8 lbs 10 oz and 21 inches
Birth: 8 lbs 2 oz and 20 inches
Just wait until he gets old enough to know what's coming!! That is the worst!!
ReplyDeleteHorrible. In 2 weeks we have our 6 months. I am not looking forward to that at all. They should be able to give vaccines orally or something. :/
ReplyDeleteIt's not the shots babies freak about, it's being held down.
