MMR & Upset Tummy

[Worrywart73]

My 12 minth old had her MMr on Wednesday - since then shes had an upset tummy - most notable by the very noxious wind that she is passing very frequently. Have has a real struggle getting her to eat anything today _ altough she is drinking no probs.
In good form during the day but at night very grumpy.

I am soooooooo worried about giving her this vaccination that I'm not sure if I am looking for something to be wrong or if an upset tummy is a sign that she hasnt responded well to the vaccine.

Hi there, it's a listed side effect of the MMR.

It's only really a concern if the gut problem becomes very severe, or goes on for a very long time, or is accompanied by behavioural changes or high pitched screaming. Extreme reactions such as those are very rare.

I always give mine a probiotic when they get upset tummies.

Thanks so much - I'll keep an eye on it and hope it passes in a few days
