Extreme tiredness post 8 week jab

Hi all,

My LO had his 8 week vaccination at 11 weeks (3 weeks late), last Tuesday afternoon. He had fever on Tuesday and Wednesday which is now gone. But he has been very tired, irritable, crying, refuses breast (can only feed when he's half asleep) and unsettled since Wednesday until today (Saturday), it has been 4 days now. It's impossible to put him down for naps during day times as he will just cry.

We aren't sure if it has anything to do with the 12 week growth spurt plus the effects from the vaccine.

Is this fairly normal?

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
