We're going in for Lo's 15 month wellness check up tomorrow. I hope she does okay.. !

It has gotten easier since DD loves going to the doctor now and requests to go so I guess it is exciting for her.
-
@Andrea: she doesn't mind getting poked?
-
Oh boy, at one of my recent appointments, there was a maybe-7 year old having a freak out because she didn't want to stand on the scale!

@chopsuey119: She doesn't mind them drawing blood at all. I guess the shots do hurt so she'll cry out for those but gets over it quickly once they give her the sticker.

18 months was the first time we had a freakout. My doctor has you make a separate appointment with the nurse for shots when possible (so they don't all hate her LOL). We went in a few days before the doctor's appointment for shots, and then the same nurse who gave him the shots greeted us when we came to the regular appointment, and my babe flipped. He couldn't get past it even after she was gone.
I hear a lot of older kids screaming too, more so than the babies.
Mine was always pretty cool about the shots, until now

DD loves the doctor; no joke! She asks to see the doctor all the time. Maybe your DD will feel that way, too!

It was tough for my first DD from about 2-4 yo. She's more of an introvert though and very shy. She also didn't really go too often so every time during that time period, it was all a bit new and scary again.
