Any mums recently had their little have their one year old imms? I'm dreading it! DS goes hysterical! Not looking forward to 4 at once plus the fact I have to weak a mask and he might be frightening by my face being covered!

Mine had them last week.

The nurses wore masks but they were both fun and friendly. It was fine. We didn’t wear masks, in and out in minutes.

Don’t overthink it or your LO Will sense it. They’ll cry for a minute but then all fine after that, and remember there’s always Aunty Capol.

My son had his a couple of weeks ago. The nurse wore a mask but I didn't have to. You just need to hold him tight, the nurse will do them as quick as possible and as soon as they are done bring him up towards you and give him a big tight cuddle. I think I was upset longer than he was!

DS had his last week, i was more upset than he was! he was fascinated by all the masks and aprons, not frightened at all. he cried for 2 out of 4, it was so quick and he was all smiles after.

Mine had his this week, I had to wear a mask and so did everyone else we saw. They checked my temperature as I came in, but apart from that really it was business as usual. As for the jabs side of things, it wasn't as bad as I expected! I fed him straight after while the nurse typed everything up, which helped. I'm sure it'll be fine, but fingers crossed for you!
