Baby’s sleep bad for days after 6-in-1

Hello MNs

Feeling terrible about baby seemingly suffering after 6 in 1 jab a week ago.
Wondering if anyone else has seen the same thing? And if it got better?

My baby has had his jabs more spaced out than normal (no haters please, I am not anti-vax)

He had his first round all on time.
His second round were just last week and every night since then he’s woken up 3 times a night.
Each time it takes an hour / hour and a half to get him back to sleep.
This is since the eve of the jabs.

We’d only just managed to get him sleeping through and now i just feel hopeless - and really guilty that the jab has affected him permanently.

He has no symptoms of distress or discomfort in the day apart from being a little more clingy.

I’ve read about how loaded with record levels of Aluminum the jabs are, how that is a neurotoxin and how some studies show it can affect their brains.
I know I’ll be called crazy for this, tin foil hat etc, but remember I HAVE vaccinated....it’s these after effects which really concern me.

Any similar experiences re bad sleep for more than 48 hours afterwards??
Did it last, and What helped?

Please help if you can! I’m so tired and worn out over it all.

Thanks

Jabs always mess with sleep for a day or so after, I find.

How old is your LO OP? it won't be a permanent sleep disturbance, but there will be a lot more sleep disturbances to come - with teethings and regressions bear that in mind! They all pass and you just have to take the rough with the smooth.

Hey OP.. can't really advise but I can sympathise with your worry.

I think people are very quick to judge when it comes to being procatious of vaccinations. My friends son is severely vaccine injured. Not trying to scare you as this doesn't sound like anything similar to her boy. And it's extremely rare. But it made me very wary! My DD has been for the first two and was ill before for the 3rd set so we gave it a miss. I'm yet to re-book as I just can't bring myself to do it Sad but I will so don't freak out people!!!

There are some fb groups you can join that may be able to advise better than mumsnet.

I think we have to be v cautious about what we read on line and the source.

There is nothing to link his pattern of sleep to the vaccinations

Hope the link reassures you. You don’t say how old your baby is but you know that sleep patterns aren’t set in stone at this stage. You obviously have some anxiety about vaccinations as you have chosen to space them beyond the usual schedule but I am sorry but I think you are overthinking this.
