Day 400 - A jab jab day for Ian

It has been at least half yr since Ian took his last jab and its time to revisit the Everton Clinic again and this time its so different...we used to hover ard the clinic's door to stand by for Ian's turn..this time we sat in the clinic and Ian was playing on his fav blue chairs...well guess he din know what he was in for...hahaaa
Dr Phang examined Ian and after 1/2 yr, Ian only put on 0.9kg and he's now 10.1kg and he's healthy and bouncing hehee...We contemplated v long whether to let Ian take 1 or 2 jabs coz he's due for 2 jabs but we could make separate visit...so doc told us to take MMR 1st since its the compulsory jab...so Ian took the jab on his left shoulder and Dr Phang was so gd in distracting him with this invisible mosquito in the air that he din even crinch the slightest at the jab....we were surprised...he just looked STUNNED...as if the 'mosquito' took a ferocious bite ahaha but din know how to express the shock

So we decided to go ahead with the pneumococcal booster jab and it has to be administered on his thigh...this time he was super wary of the doctor hehee he was checking every move the doc makes...see even daddy dun dare to look at the needle...hehee no lah, daddy was trying to get a toy to distract Ian....and when the jab was given, Ian only made a loud yell and it was over...guess this time his shock came more anticipated and he was ok after the jab

Guess he must be glad when we made our exit from the 'dangerous' clinic hahaa...well its gonna be another 1/2 yr before we will come for more jabs but we must say Ian's been most 'brave' in taking the jabs and our fears have been unfounded...guess Ian's immunity has kindof strengthened with all these jabs and pray for more healthy yrs ahead! Till we meet the doc and the blue chairs again....
