My 1st-grader!

My 1st-grader!, originally uploaded by Snapies.

I was so busy, it’s my big kid’s 1st week of school. Doctors appointment for school physical, dental and eye exam… I’m glad it was all finished. All her vaccines are finished as well. She will get her next shots again when she turns 11 yrs old.

Here in the states you can’t go to school without completing all your medical exams and vaccines. It’s mandatory. Unlike in my hometown, some other kids can still go to school without being seen by any doctor. Without even completing their vaccines. The Filipino government only offer free vaccines until the baby reaches 9 months and that is for their Measles shot. If you want to complete your kid’s shots you need to see a private pediatrician. Just like what we experienced with our eldest. I was always paying 1000 – 3000 pesos everytime Yuna gets a shot. I’m grateful for the US government health insurance. Not only do they give free medical exams and shots, they always remind you that it’s time for your kids’ doctors appointment. If you miss the due date checkup of your kids they will keep calling you to make an appointment immediately and they won’t stop bugging you until you do LOL.
