We took lil Coop-de-ville to the pediatrician on Wednesday. He was given 5 immunizations in the form of three shots. Daddy held his hands and mommy was on the other side of the room crying. It was a terrible event...but I survived it (and so did Cooper). He slept quite a bit for the first 12 hours following. Then he was pretty much back to himself. He still has some knots in his thigh muscles so we try to rub them every feeding. He is very brave about it and just whinces and grunts when we do it. He is such a trooper.
We have also been trying to lay him down to go to sleep. I have a hard time not running to him when he cries. Shaun has to talk me through it...but Cooper is getting much better about going to sleep on his own. His crying time is down to less than eight minutes! We think he's a genious!
