this was our first time going to this doctor; luckily it's only about 2 minutes down the street just on the other side of the highway. everyone in the office was REALLY nice and i got a great vibe going into the whole appointment.
my only complaint was the length of time we had to wait in the exam room after they told me to undress him down to his diaper. poor lil guy had to be freezing. and he spit up on the lil' sleeper i had him laying on. (hence the wet spot lol)
everything checked out fine; eyes, ears, reflexes, etc. his measurements are:
length: 22.75 inches
weight: 12 pounds 14.4 ounces
head circumference 15.75 inches
since everything checked out fine, they had to give him his 2 month shots. two in his left leg, one in his right, and one oral vaccine. he cried a lot when they were administered, but he didn't really show much signs of discomfort the rest of the day. he slept for a few hours after the appointment, but not much more than usual. overall, it wasn't a bad bad experience. i just wish they didn't make ME pin him down and hold him while they were giving them to him.
they also tested his iron and that was fine too. he didn't mind the band-aid on his finger at all. :)
