6 month shots- how did your LO react?

glenrapids

baby's getting her 6 month shots today and we're going to a pool party right afterward.  i'm wondering if it's even worth going into the pool with her or if she will be miserable post-shots.  how did your LO react to 6 months shots?

ps-- sorry for all the posts.  i'm in baby-mode right now!

He was completely fine that day, he started running a low grade fever in the evening but otherwise was acting like his normal happy self.

DD was pretty cranky the rest of that day (she got her shots around 1:30pm) but otherwise seemed fine

She actually did a lot better with the 6m shots than with the 2 & 4m ones, I guess because her body a bit more used to it now. I did give her a dose of tylenol as soon as we got home and another dose before bed but she wasn't really even fussy and was only slightly warm, just really tired. I would suggest giving the tylenol right after to head off any reaction.

This. DS was really fussy and grumpy after his 4 month shots and with his 6 month shots they barely even phased him.

We gave some tylenol as soon as we got home though just in case.

DD just received her shots today. So far she has just been a little more sleepy than usual and had a slight fever.
