DD is 3.3, she needs to have her pre school boosters and she also needs the second dose of the MMR, in the next couple of months.
She used to be really good about having injections (had the chickenpox vaccine last autumn no problem) but recently she has started outright refusing, tears, saying she's scared, thrashing and wriggling etc. Tried to have the MMR recently and had to leave as she simply would not cooperate.
Any ideas? I can hold her down I guess but I'm not sure if I can hold her still enough for a jab to be safe - she's pretty big now...
