My DS is 20 months and every time we go to the doctors he screams the place down! He is ok till the doctor makes physical contact with him then he goes into meltdown mode. we have tried buying a doctor's set and practicing checking temperatures sounding his chest etc and he loves to play with it but when it's the real thing he freaks out! The doctor is good at showing him what is about to happen on a doll or teddy but nothing helps. Anything I can do to help or will he just grow out of it?
