2nd Month Doc Visit

Yesterday was Obie's 2nd Month visit, unscheduled because of his strange wheezing that progressively increased over the long holiday weekend. Apparently no one schedules appointments before 10am with his doctor, walked in at 9 and was in a room by 9:30 and out the door by 10:05. First things: 12lbs 10oz, 23inches long, 16inch head circumference.
I managed to have a much nicer nurse who realized it would be better to give the shots after the doctor had seen him, rather than before like the previous visit. Oral Vaccination after he's been measured and weighed. She also had an awesome Russian accent. I spent the rest of the day imitating it like Natasha from 'Rocky & Bullwinkle.'
Dr Morrill continues to push the 'baby acne' diagnosis for every rash he has, listened to Obie's chest and determined its just seasonal allergies with some particularly bad congestion. Tells me that Obie is a 'beautiful baby,' which actually makes me feel pretty good since he said nothing of the sort the last time we had been there.
Nata--I mean, super awesome Nurse grabs a second nurse so that they can get both shots done at once to minimize the screaming factor. Works like a champ too, unfortunately he was staring at me while screaming... made me feel terrible. He was much better than last time though, might have something to do with the fact that it was over in 30 seconds rather than taking 30 mintues. My little trooper. :)
Then the fever came on after lunch :(
Carrying a screeching, flailing baby into a very quiet CVS is a little embarrassing. .625ml of Liquid Children's Motrin here. About 3pm he's finally asleep.
By that time the drive to my mother in laws and ben's work made it more sensible to just wait in the lobby at his work than go hang out there. So Obie and I slept pleasantly until everyone in the office decided it was time for a restroom break, so every few minutes he was woken up and started to cry again until about 5 when ben got permission to take off early for the day.
Yesterday was pretty freakin' long.
