Third Vaccinations
You had your third round of vaccinations at five months old, protected against some big things for such a small person. You came through it just fine, with a little help from Mum and Dad.
Three vaccines in one visit is a lot for little legs, but you handled it with more grace than we expected. We had been giving you Panadol drops ahead of time, determined to get ahead of any discomfort before it had a chance to settle in. There were tears in the moment, the kind that break a parent's heart even when you know it is all for good reason, but you settled quickly and spent the rest of the day peaceful and calm. Watching you rest afterwards, we felt that quiet relief that comes from knowing you are a little more protected than you were that morning. You were so brave, even if you had no idea why any of it was happening.
