Does your first born get sick less often than your other kids?

Today was KK's 9 month old check up. As usual she had a runny nose compliments of her big sister. Poor #2 it seems like she is getting a little cold every other month!

The doctor said that's how it is for second borns, they get everything the older sibling brings home... but the upside when she starts pre-school she'll probably never get sick. Let's hope.

We're woefully behind schedule for vaccinations because she's been sick whenever she's supposed to get one and that's been compounded by the fact that I want to spread them out so she only gets one at time just to be on the safe side.

Ah well the good news-- KK's check up was fine-- she didn't even cry when she got poked for her hemoglobin or TB tests! She's 75%-tile for weight and height, and her head size is 96%-tile!!

More tomorrow.
