Yes this is the one with 4 shots and an oral vaccine. We had it circled on the calendar as a day to look out for. Kathie and I got some infant Tylenol for Jacob, just for this day.
It did not start out well for Jacob or Kathie. He was a pooping, peeing, urping monster in the morning. He urped on Kathie, and even got it in her hair. He finally settled down before she took him to the doctor's office.
I met them at the clinic and we waited our turn. He is the number part of the post. He weighs 13 pounds and 8 ounces and it 23 3/4 inches long. The doctor looked him over and we are doing a great job.
Then came in the nurse with the needles. Jacob was hungry, so he took the oral medicine well. Then came the 4 shots, two in each leg. Boy did he scream. Then after the band aids were on, and he was in mom's arms, he whimpered a little and was quiet.
He was mostly calm for the rest of the day and spent most of the evening sleeping on me and watching the Olympics and Mario Kart. So I guess it was not such a bad day as we tough it might have been.
