Vaccines and calpol

Advised today to give DD 3 doses of calpol 4 hours apart. Her next is due at midnight and I know she will be sleeping.

Worth waking her or just to give it at her next feed which could be as late as 4am?!

Thanks

I've always scoffed at those asking for medical advice here! But more of a guide as to how hard the 8 week vaccines hit your children and do I need to be militant about the calpol...

I was in the same predicament with dd when she had hers!
In the end, she actually woke up just after calpol was due.
My plan was to wake early for a bottle - back when she used to sleep for longer 😭And give it then.

DD was sleeping through by that point so I did wake up myself, quick zap with the thermometer and luckily no fever so I left her sleeping and didn’t give the 3rd dose.

Thanks both! She's feeding now so will see how she settles and checking for a temp is a great shout.
