Baby bloodtest woes
Abigail had to have a blood test today to screen for lead and anemia. We went to a pediatric lab, but it was horrible! They had real trouble finding a vein, had to stick her several times and then dig around with a needle for literally three or four minutes. She was inconsolable. She was nursing, but letting go to scream. My heart is still in a knot, even though we're home and she's snoozing peacefully. She is going to have bruises under those stupid little Batman bandaids.
