Pneumococcal Jab (1st dose)

We bought Dillion for his long overdue Pneumococcal jab at a new PD clinic in Bishan as i decided to stop patronising Dr Ong due to long waiting time.

Whilst the lady doc- Dr Oh was explaining to me about Pneumococcal, D sat on her table, looking very solemnly and scared and was observing the Doc. He seem to know what is going to happen.

Only until Doc lay him on the table and he saw the toys hanging above then he started smiling and kicking whilst Doc examine him externally. Everything is ok and functioning well.. Am so glad when Doc assure me that there is no squint in his eyes.

This fellow happily flip on to his tummy:

so Doc decided to jab on his bum instead of his thigh since he looks as if he was all prepared.



Dillion let out a short cry after the jab and stop after being distracted by a toy.

Anyhow, i'm pretty pleased with this PD and will consider going back to the clinic for future jabs. But this jab burnt a hole in Daddy's pocket- $230!!

Kind Doc gave me a tin of 400g of Enfapro. (i did not ask for it..) she understand that nowadays formula milk is not cheap.

Dillion now weigh 8.5kg and 71cm long. I was surprised that this time round the weight gain is so little only abt 0.3kg!! Doc assured me that its normal as their weight gain will slow down after 6months and furthermore they are more active.
