Getting Shots

So, today was Sadie's first round of vaccinations. She got four shots and an oral vaccine. She cried and got so upset she pooped her pants. But, her pain was over almost immediately and she has been eating and sleeping pretty much non-stop since she got home. The doctor was great. She had me hold Sadie's hand and focus her on me while she did it from the side silently and didn't do a lot of build up.

It was a tough decision to make. I have read many things about vaccines, autism, and the like. There is no definative answers and it is still being decided. There are 2 things that are not disputed. Mercury has not been in vaccines since 2001 and boys are more affected than girls. If I had a son, I will be honest, it would be a tougher decision for me.

I also feel that maybe increased sensativity to autism (spectrum disorder) has made parents and the general public see more cases and that it is just coincidence. But, I don't really know.

Needless to say, the 1st round is over. Sadie survivied. I survived. It will get easier.

Just like parenting.
