He got his 2nd Hepatitis B shot and a heel prick to check his bilirubin levels. He has had some yellowing in his eyes since birth so the doctor just wanted to rule out liver problems. His results showed that his levels are perfectly normal and healthy and some babies who are breastfed have yellowing in their eyes and that is exactly what it is. Thank goodness! We don't have to stop breastfeeding and it should just go away on it's own with time.
When they pricked his heel he squealed but quickly calmed down. His shot on the other hand...HOLY COW! He turned the brightest shade of red and couldn't even get his cry out for about 5 seconds he was so upset. When he did cry it was as if the world was ending. WOWZA! It seriously broke my heart to see him so upset but somehow I kept it together. Somehow. He did get a super cute Tweety bandaid at the end of his appointment. I joked with Daniel that if he were old enough we would be taking him to get ice cream after that appointment. Someday =)
His next appointment I am already dreading. At 2 months they get 4 different shots. 4 shots. In one appointment. Momma is going to need a bottle of wine after that appointment!
