Having turned 4 yesterday, it was time for Rebekah to have her next round of Immunisation Needles. The nurse involved her with little activities and assessments before the dreaded needles and as you can see in the photo, she was having a lot of fun.
The injections were no fun however and she actually pulled the first needle out of her leg before the nurse had a chance to administer the injection. Brenda and I had to hold her down in the midst of very loud screams (a parent’s worst job) while the injections took place. It was certainly a job I did not enjoy. Anyway, it is 8 years before her next lot of needles and I am sure she won’t need me to restrain her then.
I totally agree. Not fun she looked so happy going thro the 4 yr old assessment not so the needles. But she was happy later on in the afternoon.
