8 week vaccinations side effects?

My baby had their jabs 9 days ago and other than being a bit sleepier and having a smaller appetite, was absolutely okay. For the past two days though, he’s had a number of explosive poos (which is very unlike him). We’ve gone from 1x dirty nappy a day to 3/4. He has had runny nappies for a few weeks now but they are now sometimes more clay-like and then back to being runny again for the next poo. They also smell quite vinegary. He is also straining when pooing.

Did anyone else experience this? It started a week after the vaccinations so could it be that or is it something else?
