Month: January 2016

Yesterday Kinley got her flu booster shot. She handled it like a champion and barely flinched.

Her Synagis this morning was another story. This time out I had a difficult time consoling her. After her shot she started to turn red and I was concerned it was a reaction — but no, it was just because she got so riled up and angry about the shot.

Thankfully, this is her last Synagis shot of the RSV season and she won’t be getting more until September. We’ll still have to be careful and we have a follow up with her pulmonologist next month.

With Kinley reaching four and a half months corrected and her appetite becoming pretty insatiable, even with the rice cereal she’s been getting the last few weeks, Mom thought it was time to let Kinley try solids.

We went completely out of the suggested order and tried green beans first. She gave us a pretty funny look at her first spoonful, but she swallowed. We kept going and by her third, she was pleased with herself.

Her next two attempts didn’t go as well. She spit out more than she swallowed, so we’re going to wait and try again in a few weeks.
