2 Month Appointment

As Beth was leaving for work this morning around 8 a.m. she told me about Reagan's 2 month doctor appointment that I was suppose to take her to at 10 a.m.

This was the first time I had to bring both kids to an appointment and at first Libby was scared because she thought she would be getting shots also. After she figured out that she was just along for the ride she was good as gold and played with the stickers she was given.
Reagan was also a model patient. She weighed in at 10 lbs 6 oz (50th percentile, she is 22 inches long (50th percentile) and her head is 38 cm around (30th percentile). Reagan impressed the doctor with her tracking abilities and how high and long she can hold her head up. She got 2 shots in each leg and is reminding me about them constantly with her crying.

Did the doctor make mention of the smiley face on Reagan's bottom? Is that normal? I've never seen a baby with one of those before and I've changed a lot of diapers ...

You don't have one of those on your bottom Sarah? I feel sorry for Mike.

Why do baby shots hurt afterwards so much?

They hurt so much because the infants immune system is mounting a response to the foreign antigens.
