2 Month Appointment

Jane had her 2 month appointment today for a checkup and vaccinations. She weighs 11 pounds and is 22 inches long! We found out last week that she has reflux, so it was nice to see that she's gaining weight well since I can't be sure how much she's eating with breastfeeding.

She did really well with the vaccines. The first was an oral one for rotavirus and the nurse said it was a sweet, syrupy liquid. Halfway through giving it to her she stopped to let Jane swallow and Jane cried out because she wanted more. It was super cute. The shots were not quite as easy though. One in each thigh. It took about two seconds after the first shot for her to start crying. Once I fed her and gave her some good snuggles she calmed down and fell asleep in the car.

The rotavirus vaccine has live cultures in it that made her belly hurt and when we got home she threw up (a ton) all over both of us. After a bath and some comfy pajamas she seems to be doing better, but she clearly doesn't feel well. I have a feeling she'll be sleeping in my arms tonight. I don't think I'll have too much of a problem with that though :)
