I understand there are health implications from the MMR. I was personally against it, dh for it and with much talking ds is having it today (aged 21 months).

I understand it's like the other jabs - he could get a temp, be cranky etc, although this is stronger isn't it. Is there anything in particular I should watch out for?

More likely to get some kind of rash -- I think that's basically same as getting a mild version of measles. That's only diff. I can remember between this & other sets of jabs.

You may find that the injection site becomes very red and swollen, and he might be a bit grumpy for a couple of days. He might also get a measles-like rash and a temperature about 10 days after he has the jab.
