Vaccines - 7 weeks?

Hello,

my doctors have booked in my babies vaccine when she’s 7 weeks 2 days. I’ve noticed I can’t give calpol until 8 weeks. Does anybody know if there’s anything else I can give to her for the fever after vaccines?

OP posts:
Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

She can't have the vaccine until she's eight weeks either so you need to call and rearrange

Rearrange for when she is 8 weeks old

Re-arrange. When you actually show up they won't be able to give the vaccine as it isn't licensed to be given before 8 weeks. Mine had them at 9 weeks and 2 days because of the whole booking system. It was fine.

They can’t be given before 8 weeks so you need to call and reschedule otherwise you’ll be sent away by the nurse and have a wasted trip.

My GP surgery got the dates wrong and only realised the morning of - had to rearrange for the following week. Phone them and let them know :)
