Sleep regression after 8 week vaccinations

[Lizbiz89]

Anyone experienced this? My 9 week old has been sleeping through until 5-6am over the last couple of weeks. Since having his vaccinations on Monday he's been waking frequently through the night and being generally fussy. Has anyone else had this after their lo's had their vaccinations? And if so did it pass quickly?

Yes! This happened with my baby. I had never heard her cry until the first vaccination, then she basically didn't stop! Crying, shouting, unsettled, poor sleep. I held her all day in arms/sling, breastfed for hours, and she co-slept with me with all night boob access to try and keep her as calm as possible. It was awful but after about 2 weeks (sorry!) She was back to normal. Weve got her second lot next week, so wondering if it will happen again.

It was very hard on my heart, as she was so settled, calm, and happy before. I hoped this change was only temporary and I did get worried 48hrs in when she was still the same, but it did pass, and it will for you too. I'm trying to think ahead to after the 3rd, then I know it's all over for many months.

Stay strong, lots of cuddles and feed, and this too will pass.

It's common for them to be unsettled after their imms. It should pass in a few days.
