Hi,

Our lo 5 months, got through all three doses of jabs fine.

Give them calpol and extra cuddles afterward. Be aware they make a strange cry out of the shock, but tend to sleep soon after as it’s the Adrenalin peaking and crashing.

Its over in a flash x

Ours hates the sling, tried three of the bloody things, she turns into a little wriggling beetroot lol

We found the oral Medicine rota virus I think it is, have her an upset tummy for a few days. No real probs but deffo noticed she was more uncomfortable when pooing

Yeah they tell you to give them 3 doses of calpol through the day.

My LO slept the whole day after her jabs and had a windy belly the next day because of the gastroenteritis oral drops.

Just be prepared for lots of cuddles
