This is her before (we had to take her clothes off to be weighted, she didn't go to the Dr without clothes) :)
She got a great report...weighing in at 12lbs 8oz! The Dr is increasing her prescription amount for her Zantac too but hopefully we won't have to take it much longer. Then the mean nurse came in and made our sweet baby cry with those awful shots. I picked her up right away and she screamed and cried and so did I...I wasn't able to console her but her daddy was. I felt a little left out since I wanted a hug and to be held too! She was fine for a couple of hours but then got really upset. She calmed down enough for us to do our nightly bath time routine but then was upset again. This time she was screaming so bad and I of course started crying too. We finally took her temperature and she had a low grade fever so we gave her some baby Tylenol and she settled down enough to nurse. Miraculously she went to sleep at a decent time and I climbed into bed after her in anticipation of a long night. She woke up at 1:15am and 5:30am which isn't normal but not terrible.
This morning she was all smiles and talking again so I guess she's fine. She's actually napped a little better so I've taken advantage of the opportunity to have her sleep in her crib for naps, though they are still VERY short.
Now we know what to expect and will have Tylenol ready for the next time although I doubt it will be any easier...
