paediatrician visit

On our visit to the paediatrician this morning I thought his second question was a bit stupid. The first one was fair enough: “how old is he now?”, answer: three months today! Then he asked, “And how much does he take at each feed? 180ml?” Now, not only does it say clearly in his notes that (at least until last month’s visit) he was being breastfed, but he could have asked “And is he breast- or formula-fed?” Instead, he makes me feel like I’m abnormal having to answer, “Um, I don’t know, he’s breastfed…” Still, when weighed and measured Simon was following the growth curves exactly, so obviously we aren’t doing anything too wrong! The injection went ok, though Simon wasn’t too happy about being pinned down for it. We have yet to see whether he reacts in the same way as last month, when he slept most of the 24 hours following his jab.
