Allex got his first vaccination shots today. He was very good for them. He had three; one in one leg and two in the other. The one by itself is very strong. It is for Diptheria, Tetanus, Whooping Cough, and Polio. After the first one, he cried and looked at me, with tears in his eyes, as if to say, "please help me?!" After the next two, he looked at me with hurt in his eyes, like I had betrayed him. After he was done, I held him close. He snuggled up to me, but with a confused and sad expression on his face. He fell asleep in my arms after about 5 minutes. He has been sleeping since - about 3 hours. Sleeping after a shot is normal, but oh how I hope he doesn't have any bad side effects! I worry so. The whole ordeal has been fairly traumatic for him and me. He does not have a fever so he should be fine, but I still find myself worrying. Life is hard and it starts early on.
