What About February 15th? - 201 Days

This already happened and your papa wrote about this already, but I want to write a little about that day.

On 2/14, you had a doctor appointment. You got 4 shots. (4!! I would die! You are a strong boy.)
Of course you cried. But you seemed fine soon after that.

The next morning, I saw some strange behavior. You blinked furiously a few times,  almost like twitching.  But I didn't care so much. I just thought "ah your new boom behavior? crazy boy."

Then, in the afternoon I was holding and feeding you. I felt something different about you. I felt your neck was hotter than usual. Then I touched your face. I felt the same thing. But your body was really cold. And you looked tired a little.

I told your papa about this. But you didn't have a cold or any sickness by then. And we checked your temperature. It was a little high but not so bad. So I asked papa to check the paper about the shots to see what the side effects were.

The paperwork from the doctor had the exact same thing written as was happening to you. The first bit of good news. We knew we don't need to worry too much. But it's the first time for us too. So we didn't want to make any wrong decisions.

So we called the doctor to tell her about this. She told us the symptoms should be gone by the next afternoon, but we can give you cold medicine to make you feel better.

We gave you the medicine. You cried so much, maybe because you were tired too. Your papa held you to make you feel better and relax. You spit up milk so bad. No, more like throwing milk. We were surprised. We helped you calm down, changed your clothes, and held you a lot.

After that you slept a lot. At night also you slept all night. Next morning you were a happy boy, like usual.

It was new step being your parents (for us). I was glad a little I could feel your difference so soon.

Our hope is that you are always healthy, lovely and happy.
