just wondering what other babies did after their injections.
my baby is 8.5 weeks, just had first jabs and seems very sleepy...

is this normal? what did your babies do?

My babies weren't noticeably any different, although if your baby really didn't enjoy the experience and got quite upset, that could account for the sleepiness.
Hope he or she feels happier soon

1st set (8 weeks) DD was very sleepy and a bit grumbly also got a temp 2nd &3rd set she cried but no after effect at all. Swine flu she didn't even flinch when she got the jab, got her next set coming up. IMO the first set are the worst, particularly for the adult that accompanies baby.

Just keep an eye on baby and give some calpol if temp goes up.
