12m/o Booster and MMR side effects

Hi, just looking for a bit of a share and handhold. My DD 13 months had her boosters and the MMR jab on Friday morning and she hasn't wanted to eat anything since (though she is still drinking milk) and she has had vomiting and diarrhea. The vomiting is lessening, but the pale diarrhea is quite grim. My DD is also sleeping a lot more than usual. Is all this normal? I am a bit of a worrier and DD is my first baby. Any war stories would be appreciated from parents who have been through it all before!

It's been a while since mine were that age but I seem to remember a few rough days which we got through with Calpol and giving them anything we know they might eat.

If she gets worse overnight I'd call 111 Flowers

My daughter didn’t have those symptoms but she did have a really high fever for 5-6 days which was a worry at the time! The hospital said they can sometimes react more with the 12 monthly jabs
hope she’s ok soon. Good that she’s still drinking lots, I guess just call 111 if still concerned
