Are anyone else’s children suffering nasal flu vaccine side effects?

Every year mine seem to have some kind of side effect. This year is diarrhoea. Any else’s household?
Mine had their vaccines 5/6 days ago.

No, never. My son almost died from influenza A aged 5 so I’d accept a very high level of side-effects let alone a bit of diarrhoea, though.

Mine have either had no reaction at all or minor sniffles, they’ve been getting it since they were little - both in teens now and thankfully never had the proper full-on flu!

Fever the first yr. Nothing since.

It’s hard to tell as this time of year is a veritable germ fest. The tummy bug that’s been going around seems to last a week

More likely just to coincide with a bug going around? We’ve had three already since school started. It’s a live vaccine, but DD has never had any reaction to it and I’ve never heard of any kids she knows having one either

All mine have always reacted to theirs. It’s a live vaccine so a reaction isn’t unusual. Mine usually get a high temp for a day or so, with a couple of other symptoms on top.

No, never had anything.
