Afterwards, he couldn't move his legs without them hurting. We got Tylenol and dosed him. He did a short nap in his bouncy chair until his legs felt better. He was a sad lump of baby after those first shots. Every set after got easier. He usually naps off the shots. I time his appointment for before nap time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/was-your-baby-poorly-after-hisher-first-shots#post-1118427 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 22:01:51 +0000 immabeetoo 1118427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope it was a non issue. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/was-your-baby-poorly-after-hisher-first-shots#post-1118419 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 21:57:40 +0000 MrsLilybugg 1118419@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cherrybee: how was it? My LO cried and cried, it made me tear up :-( I felt like such a traitor because she gets so happy when I sit her in her carseat, but instead of fun I led her to pain :'( I know of course that she'll forget, and it's for her own good. But still...<br /> She has been really sad and fussy all evening. Tylenol seemed to help. She had a massive blowout too, I think a reaction to the Rotavirus vaccine. I hope your LO did ok! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/was-your-baby-poorly-after-hisher-first-shots#post-1116094 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 08:45:51 +0000 aprk 1116094@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. He was cuddly (very rare!!) and extra sleepy. I could tell his thighs hurt from the shots so I have him a dose of Tylenol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/was-your-baby-poorly-after-hisher-first-shots#post-1116084 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 08:40:35 +0000 Pepper 1116084@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@swedishfish: Oh my goodness, I cried so hard when he got them too, because he was hysterical :( He forgot about it once I nursed him though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/was-your-baby-poorly-after-hisher-first-shots#post-1116040 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 08:27:12 +0000 LuLu Mom 1116040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She handled it just fine and was extra sleepy. we never dealt with a fever or anything following shots. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/was-your-baby-poorly-after-hisher-first-shots#post-1116038 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 08:26:20 +0000 autumnlove 1116038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She was fine...just sleepy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/was-your-baby-poorly-after-hisher-first-shots#post-1116020 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 08:17:56 +0000 skipper2010 1116020@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS was not a happy camper. Poor little guy was screaming his head off for almost 2 hours later that evening. We gave him a warm bath and he settled down once the tylenol kicked in. Broke my heart to see him like that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/was-your-baby-poorly-after-hisher-first-shots#post-1115935 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 07:37:21 +0000 Silva 1115935@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She napped a little more, and then was pretty fussy when she woke up later in the afternoon. She was doing this whining thing while she nursed...but it only lasted maybe an hour?<br /> Unfortunately she did have a reaction to the Rotavirus vaccine, and ended up with diarrhea for a week- but its better than getting the actual Rotavirus! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/was-your-baby-poorly-after-hisher-first-shots#post-1115890 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 06:59:31 +0000 sslm 1115890@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! She was fine. I was even a little disappointed I didn't get a longer nap out of her, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/was-your-baby-poorly-after-hisher-first-shots#post-1115874 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 06:51:56 +0000 looch 1115874@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only noticed a little lethargy after the shots at 1 year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/was-your-baby-poorly-after-hisher-first-shots#post-1115820 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 05:56:08 +0000 swedishfish 1115820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pepper: R was the same! Her crying during the shots made me cry though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/was-your-baby-poorly-after-hisher-first-shots#post-1115798 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 04:32:16 +0000 Pepper 1115798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>C was fine after his shots. A little more tired than usual, and then he spiked a slight fever maybe 10 hours later. One dose of children's Tylenol, and he was all better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/was-your-baby-poorly-after-hisher-first-shots#post-1115789 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 04:06:35 +0000 MrsStar 1115789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO was fine straight after her shots, until she woke up when she home, she was pretty inconsolable until she fell asleep again which meant I was pacing around the house for a while, but once she slept it off she was back to normal! Hope your LO handles it well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/was-your-baby-poorly-after-hisher-first-shots#post-1115781 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 03:40:56 +0000 Foodnerd81 1115781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm dreading this too- we got next week. Most babies seem fine with the two month ones, although my friends baby had a fever and was pretty cranky for a few days. </p> <p>So she's been waking up happy? No crazy 8 week fussiness? C had been pretty cranky and in hoping to gets out of this wonder week soon- although when she is in a good mood she has lots of smiles and will coo and talk to us for a while. It's so cute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/was-your-baby-poorly-after-hisher-first-shots#post-1115763 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 02:31:10 +0000 .twist. 1115763@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I could tell he didn't feel great,but he was still smiley and happy. I think he felt worse the day after, as he had a bit of a fever.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/was-your-baby-poorly-after-hisher-first-shots#post-1115761 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 02:17:49 +0000 MrsLilybugg 1115761@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel so sad too... She has her first shots tomorrow. My nephew was totally fine after his. Didn't even cry! (he cried during check up though. Do figure ha ha). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/was-your-baby-poorly-after-hisher-first-shots#post-1115758 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 02:13:22 +0000 Cherrybee 1115758@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Little Bean has her vaccinations today. Im dreading it! She has woken up in such a good mood and is practicing her talking, smiling away - it seems such a shame to ruin it. </p> <p>Was your baby poorly after their shots? What can I expect and for how long? </p>
