my lo had her first jabs today and experienced my first guilty parent pang! Poor little lamb looked at me as if to say 'how could you mummy'! Not looking forward to that again!

Aw, they're not nice for us mum's are they

Joe got better with each set. He did still have a little cry, but much less and I found them easier after the first ones too x

it is so horrible, i am afraid i am a wimp and make my OH hold her whilst she has them, then i grab her for a hug after! I always feel so guilty about putting her through it but its better in the long run x

oh god it was just her little face. Bless her. She was fine right after though after the initial screaming fit. X

awful isnt it - as mums we're meant to protect them and they dont understand why we'd let it happen

aw - I'm terrified about taking my little one in to get his done

when the health nurse came to visit the day after we were released from the hospital and she pricked his foot to take blood I cried more than he did!

Mine had her second today she shreaked and cried proper tears I felt awfull but them when I lay her on the bed to put her trousers back on she gave me a big cheezy grin which I took to mean thanks mum for preventing me getting a nasty disease lol

I almost cried when LO had her first set done, but then I thought that might make her feel worse so I stopped myself! We are really behind, I missed an appointment and they can't fit her in for her second set until next week. Am not looking forward to it as she was a nightmare the day after the last lot.

oh i remember when they did her heel prick test. Its just the few seconds where they realise what has happend. But on a good note even though i put her through that today i got her first real smile today! Didnt think she was going to do it so was amazing and made me cry, so she cant be that mad with me! Ha ha. X

We feel waaaaay worse than they do, I am sure they forget it all in a minute!
