Rhaine just celebrated her first birthday last week, July 10, 2010. We visited her pedia last Sunday for her chickenpox vaccine. It was funny because she did not cry a lot. She was so brave, as soon as the doctor removed the needle she also stopped crying. This vaccine cost P2500, wew. I find vaccines very expensive. In September she will be given PV13, a booster for Pneumococcal. I was told to prepare P4800 for this. I know these vaccines are very important but I hope our President Noy Aquino would do something about this very expensive medicines. I've heard that in other countries medicines are not that expensive compared here.

Rhaine Danielle is 6 months old now and is scheduled to have Pneumococcal vaccine this coming Sunday. It is quite expensive because the previous vaccine that she had comes with 6 vaccine in one only cost P3500 while this one cost P4500.
I found online that this is a good protection against septicemia and meningitis. Right now she has colds and I think I read somewhere that vaccine should not be given if baby has colds, I am not sure though. I hope she will not get fever after the shot. I will prepare her milk before taking the shot to calm her down and stop her from crying after the painful prick.
