MMR Side Effects - Second Dose

0 replies

MariaRemindsMeOfAWestSideStory · 23/04/2023 17:53

DS is 2 and had his second dose of the MMR around 10 days ago. He had his first dose a year ago and he was ill for a couple of weeks, and I had hoped the second dose wouldn’t be as bad, but I don’t know.

He’s currently got a burning fever, a bad cough (with him tugging in around the ribcage) and generally miserable.

If your child was ill after the first one, what was it like the second time round? Should I be optimistic that this will only last a couple of days or should I prepare for a couple of weeks again…
