My DD had the MMR & chicken pox vaccine last week and the doctor said that it is common to have a fever a week later. My DD has a fever today that has gotten up to 101.2 (that is with tylenol). Did your DC get a fever a week later and if so how long did it last?
ds didnt get the rash with mmr but my friends lo did and it was followed by a rash. they dr. isnt sure if it was an mmr reaction or roseola because the two are so similar.
ds got his chicken pox vaccine today and the nurse mentioned that a fever was possible up to three weeks after. she said a rash was also possible due to the fact that its a live vaccine.

it turns out my little guy has an ear infection so his fever is more likely from that than the shots
