Got ours tomorrow and feeling a bit nervous - has anyone got tips on keeping DC comfortable?

I have got calpol ready in case she reacts or feels unwell - I was told just to give it to her anyway as soon as were get home

Thanks

You should give 3 doses of paracetamol at regular intervals after the MenB jab which is part of the 8 week injections

Are you breastfeeding? If possible breastfeed while your baby is having the jabs, works as a great distraction and also helps secrete calming & painkilling neurotransmitters within their brain.
