2-Month Shots

We went to our 2-month doctor visit today, and we have a growing boy!! He has jumped from 8 lbs, 12 oz (25th percentile) at 1-month to a whopping 13 lbs, 2 oz (80th percentile...whoa!) at 2 months! He is also measuring in the 80th percentile for length (23.5 inches) and head size, so our baby boy is nothing if not consistent!


The 2-month shots were...let me think of the right word...rough. Because babies have to be naked for doctor's appointments and Carter does NOT enjoy being naked or cold, he screamed bloody murder the entire time, forcing the doctor to literally shout over the screaming as we discussed things like sleep and teething and then...dun, dun, dun, the needles began. Between screams, the nurse forced him to drink some sort of medicine that looked nasty and then stuck his poor little legs twice. He wailed like nothing I've ever seen and has been pretty pitiful all afternoon and evening.

Thankfully, he took a 2.5 hour nap once we got home and is now down for the night. I am so glad we have another 2 months until anymore of those! Poor thing. :(
