Mummy and Zach had flu jab

We decided to give Zach flu jab before we fly off to Shanghai end of this month. It's just a precaution we can do for him but not 100% fully cover him from all flu viruses.

After registering him, I decided to take the flu jab too. It makes sense as in if I caught the flu virus I'll be not well to look after him. And for $28 to last me a year or so, I'm game for it.

The queue was pretty long tonight and we have to wait for about 50mins to see the PD. Oh, first time I see a PD at the age of....*ahem* old enough to categorize as adult.

We went for our dinner and by time we are back it's a short wait. Zach was curious on his surroundings and Dr. Loke did a quick check on him before giving him the jab. He has to be well to take this jab and most important of all he has to be non allergy to eggs. Whole eggs. I'm lucky and fortunate that Zach is pretty good baby to handle and he's free from dairy allergy and I too tested him with eggs on last Saturday by steaming the whole egg for him. He loves it and he whallop the whole steam egg.

So, all clear and Dr Loke telling us to hold his hand upright close to his head and ear. Zach didn't like to be hold this way as he knew we adult are going to do something serious to him. He whimper and looking at the needle going in to his thigh. WAaaaaaaa.....! was his first reaction to the jab :p.

MH pick him up and soothe him. He stop and looking and staring at Dr. Loke. We ask him to wave goodbye and giving a kiss to her but he just stare at her from distance :). Thinking and wondering if she's going to give him another jab.
