3-month imms - expect similar reaction to last time or worse/better?

Hi all,

My triplets are having their 3-month imms over the coming week, and I'm just after some thoughts on whether they're likely to react similarly this time to last time, or whether the reactions are milder/stronger with the subsequent doses? last time they were just all a bit cranky, a bit looser poo, one had a hoarse cry. I know the jabs aren't exactly the same at 3mths as they were at 2mths, but the 5-in-1 is the second dose. Any experiences of whether round 2 was better or worse for your littluns?

All of mine were much better for the second lot.
For dd1 she was temperature and miserable for about 24 hours after the first, nothing at all after the second, and mild temperature after the third.
Dd2 was temperature and very miserable for the first, mild temperature after second and third.
Ds was pretty bad for the first, high temperature, crying constantly, for about 3-4 days, mild temperature for second (preceeded and delayed and also followed by an ear infection), third was fine, slightly grotty and mild temeprature, but he didn't have it until he was over 12 months old due to constant ear infections.

MY DD was better for the 3 month ones too, but slightly worse for the next set- no temperatures as I recall but just really grumpy for quite a few days. Hope it goes OK!
