2 month shots...seriously??

osscott4510 · May 2010

Took Syv in for his 2 month shots today and I called DH immediately after to inform him that he would be in charge of the next appointment where shots were involved....I cried the whole time!!! Seeing 6 HUGE needles shoved in my baby's adorable chunky thighs, REALLY???? Worst experience ever (so far) in being a mom : (

SIX??? That seems excessive-- DD had all the usuals and only had to get 3. I felt terrible myself, but she took like a champ. I think it is harder on us poor mamas... I feel so bad for you and your little man! Six! I just can't get over that!

NELCORP · May 2010

6 did you opt out of the 3 in 1?

rinny25 · May 2010

I had back up support in case DH wasnt able to make it for some reason. They were horrible to go to but DS did great so next time hopefully won't be as bad. Why did your LO get 6?

sar17 · May 2010

thats effed up and in no way good for them at that age. read the vaccine book, we are doing a modified schedule like we did for ds. no more than 2 at a time

That wouldl be traumatic!! Jack just got 2 shots and an oral.. I probably would've cried too if I had to watch him get 6 shots!

osscott4510 · May 2010

I didn't know there was a 3 in 1? I thought 6 was the norm?? I should also add, he took it like a champ and as soon as they were done just looked at me like, is it time to go mama? Like it was no big deal!

sorry, couldn't help myself

DD only had 3 shots (two in one thigh, one in the other) and one oral.

Six is a lot! I probably would have cried too.

Seriously?? You would write this in someone's post who is already upset that their kid had to get shots? Think before you post. To each their own and sometimes it's best to keep your "schedule" to yourself.

OP... I have to go tomorrow and am dreading it! I made sure DH knows he will be with me:)

Olivia got her two month shots yesterday too- 2 shots and an oral. She screamed like crazy! I started to cry and couldn't stop for five minutes. I never want to see her in pain again!!

this comment is stupid as you are denying others from information they may be glad to have for future appts.

IT's good to be informed of what they are injecting in your little baby

It's a little late to be giving your opinion in this case. Yes it is good to be informed on what goes into your LO body. I think you just could have been more tactful about how you said it seeing OP was already upset.

greeneyes9800 · May 2010

my dr uses some combo shots so DD got 3 shots & one oral vac. Just think how much better it is than seeing her sick. it gets easier eaach time

I agree and should have altered the response, however, I was under the impression from her post that she already made the informed decision on vaccine shots and was just upset at seeing him get the shots. It was obvious in later posts that she had no idea what her lo was actually getting or supposed to get and i just don't understand putting blind faith in these type of things for your lo when there is plenty of time to learn a little in advance.

having said that, millions of children follow the recommended schedule and are just fine.

WOW remind me not to ask you for comfort EVER, I'm pretty sure you just basically called me a bad mom...THANKS that makes it much better : ) Sure wish I could be perfect like you!

sar17 · May 2010

lol no, not a bad mom. it's your decision either way.

lindsaynjason · May 2010

Sorry. It's got to be rough seeing your LO in pain. We are seeing the pedi tomorrow for a sick visit, but are scheduled to get shots on Tuesday next week. Not looking forward to it at all.
