MMR Booster

Hi ds (3.5) had his pre-school booster last Thursday which was his 4-1 & his mmr.
The nurse said as his mmr is a live vaccine he may experience a reaction in 7-14 days.
Last night he was really unsettled, up continually through the night, crying & wide awake.

Has anyone else experienced anything similar after their child's Pre-school booster?

My 3 year old just had his booster yesterday. If like last time I expect a feverish night in near future. He also threw up on his hot night.
Think quite normal.
Hope all well now.

So far so good but early days.
Bellowing downstairs that he wants a biscuit at the moment!

DS has a similar reaction to every vaccination (he has annual flu jabs) - the immune system creates an immune response so it's meant to happen.

Calpol and lots of fluids should see him through.
