Is it just me or is taking your kids in for vaccinations is a very scary experience? I know it's just something you have to do as a parent and that it's for their wellbeing, but it's always a nerve wracking time for me. Once they get the painful shots and settle down then you have to worry about them reacting and trying to distinguish between normal reactions and something else. I took my 5 year old in for his shots and we both ended up on the floor almost passing out. Not a typical reaction, but I started feeling queasy when he turned white (including his lips) and I was so worried about him I started to panic slightly. We are both okay, but it was a scary experience.
