Preschool vaccinations

26 replies

HalloHello · 24/04/2022 20:06

My just turned 4 year old is due her vaccinations on Tuesday. She is absolutely terrified and gets hysterical every time we talk about it. We have done role play, watched the Bing vaccinations episode, talked about it etc but she is still terrified.

I just don't know how I'm going to get her to have them. I don't want to hold her down as that's going to be traumatic for everyone but I just don't see another way!! I don't even know how I'll get her into the GP building. I'll have my baby in a buggy too who gets upset when other people are upset 🙈🙈

Any tips?!? Help!!!!?

We told my son it was super hero juice that would help him stop getting ill.
He did cry but we had a bag of buttons ready for him to have.
He told his grandma 'the lady put a sharp thing on my arm and it's stinged but now I have super hero juice in me'!!
Dd1 had hers and said 'no thank you, no thank you' she was so polite it was cute.
It's a necessity evil unfortunately x

This is exactly what I did. He was fab with them then.
