13-7-2009 - Elijah's Doctor Appointment

My mood while writing this blog: headache

SO MY SON ELIJAH WHO IS 13 MONTHS OLD TODAY HAD A DOCTOR'S APPOINTMENT FOR HIS 1 YEAR SHOTS AND CHECK UP. HE WAS WEIGHED AND MEASURED TODAY. HE WEIGHED 24 LBS. 15 OZ. AND HE IS 30 3/4 INCHES LONG. EVERYTHING IS GOOD WITH HIM HE IS PERFECTLY HEALTHY ACCORDING TO HIS DOCTOR. I FELT SO BAD TODAY WATCHING HIM GET POKED WITH NEEDLES. HIS FINGER GOT POKED TO CHECK HIS LEAD LEVEL AND THEN HE GOT 3 SHOTS TODAY. HE GOT HIS HEPATITIS A, CHICKEN POX AND HIS MUMPS,MEASLES, AND RUBELLA SHOTS TODAY. HE STARTED CRYING ONCE THEY GAVE HIM HIS FIRST SHOT. I FELT SORRY FOR HIM BUT I KNOW IT IS SOMETHING HE HAS TO GET OR HE CAN GET REALLY SICK. I JUST FEEL HELPLESS FOR MY LIL GUY. BUT ONCE HE GOT HIS SHOTS DONE AND OVER WITH HE WAS FINE. WE CAME HOME AND HE SLEPT FOR A GOOD HOUR N A HALF. NOW WE JUST HAVE TO GO BACK IN 2 MONTHS WHEN HE IS 15 MONTHS OLD SO HE CAN GET MORE SHOTS.
