THREE jabs.. all in a day!

Johann was scheduled to go for his pneumococcal jab (1st dose) at the Private Children's Clinic today...

Been a while since we last saw Dr Tan...

Throughout the general examination by Dr Tan, Johann was really cooperative. The nurse attempted to give Johann a ball to play with during the examination. Johann rejected it and chose to give Dr Tan his full attention instead. haha. He really impressed Dr Tan... Mummy and Daddy were impressed too...

Johann is growing well... Weighing 11.8 kg and standing at 76 cm...


The story behind the three jabs...

Johann is due for his MMR and chicken pox jabs next month. Dr Tan suggested that Johanm go for his MMR and chicken pox jabs too. This is to save Johann the agony of going through the traumatic experience again next month... After considering, Mummy and Daddy decided to take on Dr Tan's advice.

It was definitely a painful experience for Johann... Poor fella...
Daddy was holding on to him... Mummy was holding onto his hands... One nurse was holding onto his legs and the other two nurses did the jabs...

Without a doubt, Johann screamed his heart out...

He recovered quite quickly from the shock. Munching happily on his sweetcorn crunchy rings while Mummy waited to make the next appointment for him. Next one in October. 2 more jabs and final developmental checkup. Last one, finally. Phew!

Mummy's definitely not looking forward to his screaming then... at 18 months old... bigger Johann, bigger scream??? hehe

But for the moment... Mummy's more worried about the fever and rashes that might come on within the week due to the jabs... Hopefully he'll be strong and there won't be any fever at all (",)
