Cry baby...

Little Miss had her 2 month check-up today and it sucked! Well, not all of it. She weighs 10 lbs 3 oz and is 21.5 inches long. She is doing really well in that aspect. She peed on the weighing table which I thought was cool. Then came the suckiness. She had to get her hips ultrasounded for hip dysplasia and the clinic messed up on when she was supposed to get them. So now we have to get her hips ultrasounded again. I am going to call the clinic tomorrow because I don’t think we should have to pay for their mistake. Let’s see how well that works out.

Then! THEN she got her 2 month shots. My daughter has colic so she knows how to cry but I have never seen here cry like she did then. About 3 hours later we are at Target when she starts to cry really suddenly and really loudly. I go to change her in the restroom and she is screaming like it is the end of the world, so much in fact that an employee knocked on the door to ask if everything was all right. Poor girly. So we I have to find Branch with a crying baby because my phone is at home. We looked at her injection sites and one side is swollen and red. I am by this time freaking out a little. By the time that we got outside (in the natural light it looked better) she isn’t crying as much but I am by this time feeling like a horrible mother. Anyway we get her home and she is still crying and unhappy and all I can do is hold her.

So now I am watching her like a hawk, giving her infant Tylenol, and taking her temperature every two hours or so. My mother said to be worried if her temperature reaches 101 because she is on Tylenol. I am so lucky to have a husband who is a worthy priesthood holder who was able to give her a blessing.

She seems to be doing better. I’m not. I foresee a long night for me and Branch.
