I had to take my 2month old sweet boy for his vaccinations yesterday and i'm not sure who was more upset about the whole thing me or him. I was feeling nervous as I walked in there, the thought of my poor little boy having needles was almost enough to make me walk back out before it even all started. The nurse said to hold his little hands and she would do one needle in each leg (What 2 needles!!!) I couldn't bare to look and as I heard him give just a little wimper I had to fight back tears and then he cryed out with the second needle and I found tears welling up in my eyes. As I walked out I thought ok maybe I over reacted but I couldn't help it, watching my sweet little boy so upset.
Well another 2 months and we'll have to go through this all over again. Maybe I should get someone else to go in with him? Then again I want to be there to comfort my little one......I'll worry about it when the time comes round.
Anyway we went home and I gave him lots of kisses and cuddles to make up for it and he thanked me with one of his beautiful smiles . |
