4 Month Checkup

On February 13 Desmond had his 4 month checkup. He got his 2nd round of vaccinations, which included 3 shots. He didn't enjoy the shots, but we were able to calm him down pretty quickly with some cuddling and nursing. I thought that was the end of it, but he got really fussy later in the day - I actually had to leave Baby Boot Camp in the middle of a class, he was screaming so majestically. I gave him some baby Tylenol once we got home, and that seemed to help a bit. Maybe next time I'll give it to him before the appointment?

The good news - he's growing like a weed! His stats:
