2 month old shots
Today my little man had his 2 month old well child visit at the doctor. He is growing great. He weights 11 lbs 6 oz (50th percentile), 23.5 in length (75th percentile), and head circumference 36.6 (10th percentile). The shots were the worst part. He had to get 3 shots and one oral medication. I think the shots hurt me more than they hurt Caleb. He was such a trooper. He only fussed for a few mintues and was calm once I picked him up and placed him at my chest. I on the other hand was an emotional mess. I teared up just watching the nurses hold him to get the shots. Hearing him scream made the tears roll down my face. I just hate seeing my baby hurt. Also hearing him cry out in pain throughout the rest of the day has been rough for me. I can't believe I have do to this at 4, 6, 9 months and so on. Hope it gets easier. Caleb was also given a different medicine for his reflux. He was having a hard time with the Zantac. He really hated taking it and the taste. His new medication should taste better, it smells like bubble gum. Guess we'll find out later tonight. I just hope it works. After he took the Zantac, he was able to sleep 6 hrs at night. I need that as much as he does. I will keep you posted on his reflux.
