First vaccinations (8 weeks)

My baby is due her 8 week vaccinations this coming week - has anyone got any advice how to make them as easy as possible for her? She is quite small so i dont think she is able to take baby nurofen - i will ask in the pharmacy but does anyone know of anything else she can have if she needs it?

I was planning on a couple of quiet says at home afterwards but does anyone else have some advice from experience?

Thank you

Don't fret - she will sense that. My son had his vax with no change in routine and no ill effects. Just follow her lead. :)

Thank you Panzee. She had them this afternoon just had a feed and a cuddle and is sound asleep. Im sure I was more worried than her!

A little irrelevant to you whostolemyname, since she has now had them, but for other future readers.

If you are worried about baby being quite small come the 8 week vaccinations and hence how they will cope, then you can always delay them for a few weeks until they are a little bigger.
