Shots

Poor baby Abby had her 6 month check up and shots yesterday. She hates going to the Dr. already, so she wasn't happy about being there even before they gave her the shots. She always cries for a couple minutes after shots until someone distracts her enough or she is put back in her car seat where she feels safe. She also always cries when the Dr. looks in her ears or mouth. Yesterday, they had a tough time keeping the rotavirus vaccine in her mouth because she squirls medication away in her cheeks and then spits it out. After all the excitement at the Dr. we came home and she was pretty grumpy for the rest of the day. She was running a fever. She took a 2.5 hour nap in the afternoon, which NEVER happens around here. We usually only get an hour out of her. She seems to be feeling a little better today, but still not quite herself. She weighed in at 20lbs 12oz and she is 28 inches long. No more shots for another 6 months!!
