Ok, I wish I was talking about the kind of shots you drink for fun, but I am not.  I brought Leiyah to her 1 yeah check-up.  She is a wonderful baby and healthy.  Just above average for height and just below for weight.  Developmentally good.  Ok, then came the shots.  I am weary about giving her shots just because you hear all of the talk.  I know there are risks when she gets a shot, but I think that the pro’s outweigh the con’s.  I am taking a chance, but what am I supposed to do.  I don’t think I am educated enough about the shots to really opt out on the administering.  

Here is my point, I get very nervous for the possible reactions she could get from these shots.  I honestly am scared she will die from some crazy side effect.  Today we went to the doctor’s at 9.  Out by 10.  HOme by 10:15.  played a little, she was happy to be home.  I put her down for a nap like usual at 11.  She woke up just before 1.  We had an alright afternoon.  She was a little cranky and not eating like normal, but I thought it must have been the shots.  So by 3:45 we took a walk, went to Acme, played in the pool, and played inside.  I decided to put her down for another nap because she was just that cranky and I would just deal with her bed time later.  She needed to sleep.  I put her down and walked out and she passed out.  I watched the screen on her monitor every 5 minutes or less.  She didn’t move.  And this is my fear, that she will not wake up due to one of the shots.  I hate this feeling.  I guess it comes with being a mom.  She finally moved and I felt much better.  All along I knew she would be ok, but there is always that slight chance it would not be that makes me worry.  She woke up at 4:44 and we ate, played, and read books.  She went down for sleep at 6:45 and I am happy.  She just went down, no crying, and she is still down.  I am so happy everything worked out.  Another 3 months until I get to do this all over again. Yay.
