Day 69

Friday 24th October

Hunter had his 2 month needles today! :( His appt was at 9:45 and I was happy to see that Kellie, my doctor is back! Need to make an appt with her soon, for some other stuff! Hunter was very good. He got the polio one by mouth, and then 2 needles, one in each chubby thigh at the same time, to minimise the stress. Kellie did one needle and the nurse did the other. The second the needles went in, he went bright red and screamed blue murder! Rob was holding him and I got his bottle ready. Shoved it in and he was fine, drank about half of it. We had to wait around for about 10mins afterwards, just in case he had a reaction but he seemed fine, propped up on Rob's shoulder. When we left, we met Mum and Dad at the cafe, where they'd been waiting for us to finish up at the doctors. They'd arrived a bit earlier for their weekend visit and went to grab some brekky.

Rob had a preview for the TopGun to do at 927 that went live on Sky so he took off not long after we got back home. Mum and Dad cuddled Hunter a lot, took some photos, and probably some video. We watched Rob's preview, then we went for a walk into Lara. I had something to post and Mum and Dad wanted to pick up a few things and get something for lunch.

Luckily, Hunter had no reaction to his needles, not even a mild fever. I had given him a dose of baby panadol before he went, then about 6 hrs later, just as a preventative measure. You'd never even know he'd had them.

Isn't he cute in his baby elmo outfit?
