For any of you that have kids out there, you know how traumatizing this event is for both baby and parents... Mercifully, this was done by the über-cool Dr. Monte (check out his B-Boy pose below). She got her

DTAP (Whooping Cough, Tetanus, Diptheria) and Hepatitis shots this visit. She took her first shot like a champ, with minor crying that was quickly consoled. The second shot was the doozy, 'tho. That produced the dreaded "soundless cry"- a scream so intense that the baby didn't breath for 10 seconds... in total silence. The subsequent wails were full body rockers that left her flushed from head to toe... Took about 10 minutes to calm her down from that one... On a brighter note, she was 8lbs and 21½ inches during her last Doctor's

visit. This vist, she weighed 12lbs and was 23½ inches long! This greatly outpaces the 1lb a month rate that's normally expected of newbies. Scary that she's only a month and a half old, and only being fed breastmilk, no formula at all... She'll either end up as a runway model, or the WNBA at this rate (",)
