It probably also really helped Clara to see Daddy get his shot and not cry or panic. I love how you guys handled this! Great job!

It’s been fairly ok so far. But I’m definitely keeping these in mind for Bensen’s shots coming up at his three year appointment.

We have to go all the way to the children’s hospital for blood draws because our ped doesn’t do them – it’s such a hassle!

Caleb has had to have a lot of blood draws recently and he’s such a champ about them – I think a lot of it has to do with us being open and honest!

I can’t even see the syringe without getting lightheaded, never mind watching someone actually administer the shot. But I do remember when I was younger, especially when I got my shots before kindergarten, how badly I wanted to be brave and not cry (and I didn’t! Until later that night when I got home, which my parents attributed to post-vaccination irritability.) Clearly the bravery angle stands the test of time!

Ashford is cool as a clam and hardly notices when they do it. Azalea on the other hand, cries before, during and after her shots like they are the most traumatizing thing on earth to her. sighhhh 🙂
