Amazingly well bahavied kids!

August 2nd, 2007 at 05:46 pm

They were So good at the Dr, not just for the wait, though I had to keep suggesting new games, and not just for the checkup part, but all three were wonderful for the blood draws and the shots.

First my oldest, GMC (5 year old)sat up on the table for two shots, he didn't even blink! I am so proud of him.

Then we told him he was all done and it was JCs turn (middle kid, 3 year old) Only after a minute the nurse says she needs to draw JCs blood and the one shot, this was a mixup so she went out to double check the charts (always hard when you bring in three kids at one time)

She comes back and says it is GMC who needs blood drawn, Does JCs shot and JC was wonderful, just a mite of teary eyed, and a mite clingy after, I let her sit in my lap while GMC came back for the blood draw.

(remember we told him he was done?) he hopped back up for the blood draw and was very good, he blinked when the needle went in then a second later asked 'how long is that going to take' in a slightly distressed voice, but that was it!

Then came the kid we worried about UE is almost 2. He sat still for the blood, didn't even blink when the needle went in, and did nothing but wiggle his arm while she finished! Then for the shot the first went in fine, but as soon as she pushed the meds in he cried, and continued thru the second shot. he was done before she could close up the second needle and get the third out! Of course he started again when the third needle went in the other arm. but only for a minute, very quick, just letting us know it hurt.

When we visited family later that day he was talking about the shots "shot, ahlllll done" he was glad they were over! he also would point to his arm and say "buhd" where the blood came out.

The bad part is it cost us 90$ to get all kids up to date on checkups and shots, but the good news is they are adorable!

    Awww. Sweet things. I hated to take my kids for shots. DD would get upset over the bandaid more than the shot itself! She hated bandaids until she got older and loved the little mermaid ones.

    LOL!...Ale doesn't want to go to the community clinic anymore..."their shots hurt and they don't give you bandaids!!!"...and she was most distressed about the bandaids than about anything else!!...

    Oh, I hated the whole shots thing. It was so hard listening to the kids cry when they were babies.

    My little one went to the DR today and told him he wanted a shot! We actually had to argue him out of it and convince him to wait for next year! We told him he could let his little sister watch if he waited and show her how it's done and that convinced him. I remember my DD1 hated shots and screamed bloody murder when they were needed.
