Shots...Ouie!!!

This week was Sophia's 6 week check up and it was a doosy. It was her vaccination appointment. She needed 6 vaccines. 5 shots 1 oral. At least 1 of the shots had 3 vaccines combined. we decided to spread these shots out over a 3 week period so she didn't have to get all of them all at once. She didn't mind the oral vaccine which I am sure was nice and sugary for her. The shot on the other hand was totally different. Daddy took point on this one. The nurse gave it to her in her left thigh. She yelped and started to cry and then Daddy grabbed her and started holding and rocking her. She calmed down immediately and then just whimpered but she was all right. Wow what a trooper. I had expected her to scream her head off for hours after. No such luck, thank goodness. Now we have a repeat in 2 weeks. Wish us luck.
