Trey's First Shots (2 months)

He was all smiles while the cute doctor was in the room, but when she left he got a little cranky.  His father is a first time dad so I was really worried about how he would handle watching someone inflict pain on his son.  It's hard seeing that even if you know that pain is for the best.

For me it was what we expected.  He cried.  It was sad.  I stayed in the room after to breast feed until he was asleep and content. Before we left his father got information about the immunizations he received.  We discussed rather or not we wanted him to have any at all because this is very controversial.  In the end we decided it   was best to give him the immunizations.

When he did finally wake up he was feverish and cranky.  Later that day we gave him some infant pain reliever as directed by the doctor.  I only had to give it to him twice before he was back to his smiling and wonderful self.
