did they go better or worse than the 2 month shots?
DS' 4 month well check is tomorrow--so just curious...
-
DD just had her 4 month shots yesterday (they were out of the combo one! boooo
so she just got dTap and rotavirus) and she seemed totally fine afterwards! no fever yet...knock on wood...and she only cried for a few seconds afterwards. sleep wasnt affected either. good luck tomorrow! hope A does great!!
-
4 month was waaaay better! LO was miserable for about a week after her 2 month shots, and I was bracing myself for the same at her 4 month appt but was relieved that she had essentially no reaction.
-
They were about the same for us. LO was tired afterwards and wanted to nap.
-
Our 4 month shots were worse =/ maybe it was because he was more alert and kind of knew what was going on. He was hysterical, it was so sad! At his 2 month shots he acted like they didn't even bother him!
-
They were pretty much the same. He fell asleep almost immediately after and was a little bit crankier/slept more that day and the next.
-
4 month was better but we didn't have that hard of time with the 2 month ones. He just seemed less cranky and tired after his 4 month shots.
-
4 months didn't affect her, she had no fever and wasn't crabby at all! I have 6 month next week...I'm worried about those since she is much more vocal these days
-
He was crabbier after his 4 mo but I also think the 4 mo sleep regression had a lot to do with his crappy sleep that night.
-
Worse but not bad. Reacted the same at the doctors but spiked a low fever for three days following and has a tender knot at one injection site. Wasn't any sleepier which doesn't surprise me!
-
Unfortunately, the 4 month shots were way worse than the 2 month shots for us
He was fussy for a few days and I had to give him several does of Tylenol. The good news is that the 6 month shots were MUCH easier. No Tylenol needed!
-
2 months was worse - he was inconsolable without Tylenol. However, I gave him Tylenol right after 4 month shots so honestly they could have been as bad, but I never let it get to that point!
-
2 months, dd was fussy and we had to give her Tylenol. 4 month she slept through it.
-
4 month shots were way worse for us. He swelled a little with his 2 month shots, but worse with his 4 month shots. And his schedule was way off for a while. He gets his 6 month shots on Monday, and I'm dreading it.
-
The 2 month shots were slightly worse than 4 month but neither were too bad. LO slept alot after the 2 month shots and was fussy after her first nap. After the next nap she was back to normal. She didn't have any reactions to the 4 month shots and seemed normal right after.
-
The 4 month shots were the worst for us. LO spiked a fever of 103.6 and was projectile vomiting. We ended up having a doctor come out to our house because we were so worried (yes, we're neurotic first time parents, but that fever was so high and she couldn't keep any Tylenol down!). Fortunately, it all only lasted a day and she was able to keep Tylenol down the next day so her fever stayed below 101.
The two month and six month shots were a breeze comparatively. Good luck!
-
2 month she screamed inconsolably, slept, screamed, repeat.. and, had swollen red spots where the shots were.
4 month she screamed til I picked her up, then just kind of babble-yelled. she did have a fever that night but wasn't cranky! and no swollen red spots.
-
pretty much the same as @kodybear.
-
They were the same reaction for us! Just drowsiness for LO, thankfully.
-
@LuLu Mom: ugh, ours are monday! I'm worried too, because just this week she mastered saying "Mama" when she's upset
so she just got dTap and rotavirus) and she seemed totally fine afterwards! no fever yet...knock on wood...and she only cried for a few seconds afterwards. sleep wasnt affected either. good luck tomorrow! hope A does great!!
