Aly's 2 Year old Check up

Well, what can I say? It was the most difficult experience as a parent I have had yet. Me and Aly went to the dr. this morning for her 2 year old check. We were in the waiting room and she was great, then as we went back to the room, she lost her marbles! She always freaks out when they weigh her for some reason but it didn't stop there today. We are talking banging her head on the table, slapping the wall, red faced screaming, I had never seen anything like it. The nurse just talked over her for a while but then had to physically hold her down to get her measurements. I felt absolutely helpless, there was nothing I could do or say to make her stop, it was so out of character for her.

They gave us some alone time in the room for her to calm down before the dr. came in and it took about 20 mins of reading books and a lot of talking about how inappropriate it was, but we made it though. She got one shot in her leg and they pricked her finger to check her cholesterol and her iron and that came back good.

She weighs 26 lbs (50%) her height is 33" (25-50%) and her head circumference was in the 47% so she is good all around. We don't have to go back for another well check till she is 3 (thank goodness, I don't know if I could take it).

When we left the nurse was outside the room and she asked Aly for a hug and she did and told her bye and said she would be a good girl for mommy so she got a sucker and all was right with the world again!
