Saturday and Isabelle’s first immunisations were hard. She screamed so heart breaking, god I wish I could have spared her that. I succeeded to hold back the tears just.
She got her first bruise....I am sure there will be plenty more to come.
The initial pain and screaming past quite quick with some breast action. It was more the pain that came afterwards; I think it was tummy pain from the gastro vaccination that was the worst. She had a heart breaking 6 hour screaming marathon and didn’t pass out until 5pm. (She had the injection at 10am). God knows I was physically and emotionally exhausted when she finally fell asleep.
That night she slept in my bed. Actually in dad’s mould in the mattress...fitted quite nicely. (we need to buy a new mattress I realised...no wonder Craig complains he sleeps bad). She slept like an angel after a bit of panadol (should have given it to her earlier but we live and learn). To bad my dog didn’t and I still needed to spend three hours awake with him in the middle of the night.
Thank god this lot of injection is over and two months till next. Next time I’ll be more prepared emotionally and with baby and mummy panadol, a decent night sleep the night before and have Craig on standby.
Anyway, I need to go to bed before the rocking boat I consistently feel I am on actually sinks...(I need to eat more I think)
Bye.
