2 Months Old! :)

Beatrice had her 2 month checkup today. She's doing really well! She weighed 10.5 lbs and is 22 1/2 inches long! Exactly in the 50th percentile for height, weight and head circumference. And the poor baby got her first round of shots :( They learn a new cry that day :( one of serious pain. It's so horrible! They had 4 nurses come in to give the 4 shots and had me hold her on my lap (which I didn't really want to be associated with that!). At least she got all 4 shots at once. It took her almost 30 seconds to cry - she sucked in right away and held her breath before she let loose :( my eyes got all teary too. It's so hard to watch your little baby get stuck with needles almost as big as her leg! The nurses commented that she had a soft cry, not so loud - and then she started screaming. Poor baby :( She's been pretty fussy since we got home, so we may be in for a long night :(
