Well we're back from taking Jamie for his jabs. He was such a brave little soldier!! First he was weighed and measured - he's now 10lb 3oz so is gaining weight steadily (he was 7lb 4oz at birth), then he had to wait to see the doctor, who checked him over, and all was fine. Then we went in for the jabs. He screamed just after the nurse had done the first one, a different sort of cry to what I've heard before. He must have wondered what the hell was happening!! Once we'd got him dressed and back in the pram he fell straight to sleep and is still asleep now. We're supposed to keep him cool and check to make sure he doesn't get a temperature. Poor little thing, and he has to go through it all again in 4 weeks!

A bit later... Well I think the jabs have affected him - he slept from 12 til 2pm, and then I woke him up for a feed, then he went straight back to sleep from 3-5pm and again I had to wake him to feed him and do his bath. I NEVER normally have to wake him for a feed... He's not asleep yet now but seems quieter than usual. He doesn't seem hot (he's generally quite a warm-feeling baby anyway) so hopefully he's ok, poor little monkey!
