First jabs

5 replies

My baby had her 8 week jabs today. She is feeling quite warm so i’m wondering what to dress her in for bed. She usually sleeps in a 1 tog bag and long vest (room is 20-23 degrees)

Any ideas? Do I dress her normally or less than this?

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Are you giving the required paracetamol doses too?
Maybe use a short sleeved vest instead of long sleeved

If she's warm then firstly I'd recommend regular calpol. You may wish to put her in a shirt sleeve vest or just the sleeping bag because they can get quite a temp after those first set of vaccinations due to the men b jab xx

Have you given calpol? I had to give mine the 3 calpol doses last month and then her temp came down.

Interested in this thread?

Hey,
She should react to the calpol so would dress as normal. It's handy if you can check her temperature and you'll see whether she has a temp or not currently and then just monitor in the night, that's what I did just over a week back when mine got a terrible fever for two days x
