Second time round...

Posted by: Sharmila Rajah Post(s) by this blogger

 

It was a painful start to the week for Ayanna. She once again felt the piercing pain of the needle. The third month marks another dosage as part of the immunization series. She was quite the brave girl, not uttering a single cry. This surprised even her doctor. However, the next couple of days saw her being rather ‘manja’, wanting to be held at all times and fussing for no reason.

 

It was an exhaustive two days for mummy too, who was busy keeping vigil by her crib-side. Mummy had to observe baby to ensure any reaction to the vaccine was kept under control. Fever and swelling is typical. Ayanna experienced both.

 

I’m glad it’s over. The fourth month is a welcome break from any injections. Her next loaded needle will be in the fifth month.

Time for travel…

The destination … picked. The flight tickets … bought.

 

Just a couple of essential things we haven’t figured out yet – what are the do’s and don’ts for traveling (by plane) with a four-month old. And what are some of the preparations required before taking that flight.

 

Anyone got a clue?
