8 week jabs - breastfeeding constantly?

My little boy had his 8 week jabs this morning and handled them like a little trooper. Just wanting to check that it's normal for them to just feed and sleep constantly after? If he's not asleep or on my boob he's screams, bless him. So we've had a day on the sofa with lots of cuddles. We normally try and get out and about daily but I thought today it would be best to just stay at home so he has unrestricted and quick access to my boobs! I know everyone's baby reacts different to their jabs but anyone whose had similar, how long did it last? Cos honestly I'm debating whether or not to do my food shop online this week 😂

There are many growth spurts at this age and he might be feeling a bit under the weather with the jabs. I'd just ride it out on the sofa!

Mine had his year jabs yesterday and has just bf, eaten solids and slept since, he's fed and slept after each lot of jabs only lasts a few days.

I think that sounds perfectly normal. It will be comforting for him. Does he have a temperature?
