baby's jabs

[k8bailey]

Hello all!

Baby Nancy had her 2nd set of jabs this morning she didn't even notice the 1st injection, and only wobbled her lips after the 2nd but now 4hrs later she's really angry and a bit hot (can't get her to stay still long enough to take temp!) is this normal?

What else should I expect? She just slept all day after she had her first set, so I wasn't expecting any probs after these but she seems really restless, can't be put down and is only happy staring at herself in the mirror or watching the fish tank!

:-S

you can give her calpol if you havnt already which should help.

one of the second jabs is different to her first batch so she may react differently, but just keep an eye on her. The calpol may well help her sleep and she might feel a lot better after a rest.

Amelia was bad with her first jab, screamed for hours but was fine the next day. With her second batch she got a lump where one jab went in, cried a bit but not screaming. 3rd lot she was fine.

I hope Nancy feels better soon, youll just have to indulge her and sit in front of fish tank for a while :)

Just work with her - cooler clothing if she's hot, drinks if she'll take them - if still a problem tomorrow, get to the doc's. I can remember having a similar reaction even as a teenager to typhoid jab for holidays, so that's probably how she's feeling.

Erin had her first lot of jabs yesterday and screamed for hours but finally settled down. Not looking forward to the second lot.

ILS - I haven't seen you, have I? Congratulations! Erin is a lovely name.

Emilia was fine with her first lot, there an initial shreik as the needle went in, but she was ok other than that. Her second set made her pretty grumpy, as did her third set, but her third set she got lumps on either leg aswell, bless her.

Thanks everyone she did settle down eventually in the evening, after hours of me standing so she could watch the fish - sitting was NOT allowed!! She seems fine today except for some spots down one side of her face (which are prob just a coincidence)and a little red lump where she had the injections.

Not looking forward the 3rs set it's 3 then isn't it?

Hi I Love Snow long time no 'see'! How are you and baby Erin doing? has your liver recovered yet?

3rd set arent muc fun cos after the second jab they know whats coming and dont like it one little bit.

Im glad shes feeling happier today

Everything has settled down.

Take her to the docs so this reaction is recorded on her medical records and the doc can give some advice.
