Oh No...SHOTS!
2 months 2 weeks old!
Today we had our two month checkup and immunization shots. He weighed in at 11 pounds and 2 ounces and is 23.75 inches long! His is in 25.64% of growth percentile based on weight for age, 50.67% of growth percentile based on length for age, and 26.89% of growth percentile based on head circumference for age...basically all that means that he is growing great :) That was the fun part of the doctor appointment...next came the immunizations :( Andrew cried but not as much as mommy did! Well, at least we don't have to worry about more shots until his 4 month checkup!! So far Andrew has not developed a fever from the shots but he is really sore and grumpy and I don't blame him! He got 3 shots and 1 oral vaccine today. He is now protected against Hepatitis B, Polio, Pneumococcal Disease, Diphtheria, Tetanus & Pertussis (DTaP), Rotavirus, and Hib (Haemophilus Influenzae). He also has a very small case of cradle cap (excessive dryness) between his eyebrows...not a big deal, we can just treat it with a little bit of head and shoulders shampoo.
