Later the same day it was time for Jack's first immunisations. He checked out A-okay with the doctor, weighing a perfect 10lb 15.5oz and measuring 23 inches long.

The response to being vaccinated was exactly as the doctor described. Little Jack first opened his eyes super wide, and then a second or two after the first needle went in started to scream... and we really mean screeeeeam... thankfully for only a minute or so until it was all over. A big cuddle and a feed with Mummy and everything was much better.
A slight temperature that evening was the only side effect we saw in Jack. Hooray! Hopefully the next ones will go as well in a couple of months time.
Oooh yes, and I think as an effect of all the exertions of being upset plus the extra comfort feeding Jack slept right through for the first time!
