second month shots happened yesterday. I have heard horror stories about this first round of vaccinations. If they weren't so necessary then I would opt out, but seeing as my background goes totally against that, of course I am gonna vaccinate. Anyways he was quite the trooper during the whole appointment, even though it was scheduled during his big four hour nap of the day. Dr. Chow actually said when she came in, "Look at that head control! I have a feeling he is going to be doing a lot of stuff early." After he got all checked out and was given the okay, in came the MA with the shots and the horrible tasting Rotovirus vaccine. He didn't care for that one much, but pushed through it and swallowed it. The two shots came next. They went really fast and he only cried for about a minute. Well, I should say I gave him the boob as a reward for being so good. Once he latched all things were good again and he was smiling by the time we left! He fell asleep on the way home. He slept as he usually does during the night, but before bed he was a little irritable because he had a temp of 100.6. Poor little man was a trooper and spent most of the day acting like he was too cool for school. Which is fine with me, as long as he is feeling better!
Apparently vaccinations tucker babies out! But hey sleeping is better than crying ;0)
Here are his two month stats:
Head Circumference: 41 1/4 cm (93rd percentile)
Height: 24.5 inches (94th percentile)
Weight: 14lbs 13 ounces (90th percentile)
His most remarkable growth is his height, he grew 2 inches in one month!! Crazy!!!
Reverse Benjamin Button strikes again! He is really gonna creep out Everett when he walks into the hospital to visit him as a 3 month ;) I can't believe he is 2 months already. He is such a good boy. I'm proud to be is Aunt.
