Gaven got 3 shots from his 1 year check up. He was completely healthy on the day we took him to his check up. Doctor said he is looking good, very healthy. The next day, he developed mild fever from the shots he got. Two days later, he had major ear infections… on both ears. I freaked out when Penny had to call me to pick him up at noon. She said he has been crying for 1.5 hours since he woke up from his nap and want nothing to do with food. So I rushed to pick him up and took him to the doctor right away. Doctor prescribed him with 10 day antibiotic and the next day he seemed to be doing a lot better. This is the 3rd time he had ear infection. The scariest thing is dealing with it all by myself. John was coincidentally on a business trip. It was exhausting caring for a sick child all by yourself with no help. No fun. However, it was very rewarding because he couldn’t stop kissing me the next day after he’s all better and well rested. He doesn’t show his affection very much, so to get kisses from him without having to ask for it, was very very rewarding.
Here’s his stats at his 1 year check-up:
Height: 31.5 in, 80.01 cm (92%)
Weight: 21 lbs 15 ozs, 9.95 kg (36%)
BMI: 15.5
Head Circ: 18 in, 45.72 cm (31%)
Just for fun, here’s Gaven’s growth record for his 1st year of life:
