Ouch!

Yesterday was Alex's first set of vaccinations. I held him on my lap and the nurse held his legs while giving him three shots. One in one leg, two in the other. As soon as she poked him, his head turned bright red and he cried so hard. Then, with the other two shots, it got worse. I have never heard or seen him like that. I teared up too just thinking about how I couldn't make it go away for him. I had to let him hurt for his safety. Well, one of the side effects of two of them was vomiting. Dr. Collins said that it is more like spit up, so I didn't think much of it when he spit up his dinner yesterday. But today was different. While feeding him lunch, right before he finished, he acted like he had a big burp working up, so I decided to sit him on my lap and work the burp out. He vomited everything up. It was like I had the Excorsist on my lap. Milk went everywhere! Poor thing did not feel well after that and ate very little later even with an empty stomache. He is fussy and sleeping a lot today. Keep my baby in your prayers.
