Upcoming dr. visit

So the 2 month immunizations are coming up on Thursday. I'm already worrying about her and how I'm going to react to her getting poked. I never realized how much harder it is on the parents. I think back to when I was working in pediatrics, and I'd have to help hold a child for a shot or i.v. poke. I always thought to myself..."why are those parents getting so worked up? it's just a little poke".....now I get it! I'm terrified of seeing her get stuck....and am totally dreading it. I read that breastfeeding right before or during the shots can help with the pain. I'm going to try that, and I'll be giving her some Tylenol right before as well. Hopefully that will help...and she won't hate her mommy afterwards!! :)

In other news.....we got our first giggle last week. I was singing a song to her and she totally busted a gut. That was the best thing I've ever heard in my life!! She did it again a couple days later so DH got to hear her over the phone. I can't wait till she's doing this all the time!!
