8 week injections

Hi Mumma's,

My DS had his 8 week jabs a few weeks back and reacted so bad to them. He cried pretty much all day (really unlike him) and was so unbelievably unsettled. We gave the recommended Calpol doses etc and the whole ordeal only lasted about 12 hours but it's made me so nervous for the next lot! I'm a first time mum and everyone else I've spoken to has said their little ones only had a bit of a temp and were sleepy. Did anyone else's baby react like my little boy at all?

I'm also new here so sorry if I've put any of this in the wrong place Blush

Mine were both ok with them. Try and book the next lot early in the morning of possible so that he's over it by bedtime.

My baby was like this for his 8 week jabs too, he wasn’t happy at all. He wasn’t so bad for the next ones.
Don’t worry, he’ll change so much between then and now as well.

They were in the morning thankfully!! Which meant by around 10pm he was a little better.

Thanks for the reassurance GemmaRuby Smile
