Javier had already taken all the compulsory vaccination and a few optional ones quite sometimes ago. As Javier is going to childcare next month, I decided to let Javier have the last jab, pneumococcal vaccination. For this jab, Javier only require one dosage as he's above 2 years old. For kids below 2 years old, he will have to take 2 dosages.
I was very worried that Javier will scream and shout because he has always been very afraid of visiting a clinic. Today he seems a bit calm and we had sweets and toys to distract him. Surprisingly when the doctor asked him to lie down on the bed, he obediently did so. The moment the needle poked into his thigh, he immediately frowned and started crying. Two seconds later and it's done. I quickly carried and consoled him with his favourite sweets. In less than a minute, he stopped crying and this was much easier than I thought.
Great job, Javier, You are a big boy now! :-)
