Shots and feeding help

suzienickles36

My LO just had his shots yesterday at 2 pm. He has only eaten a total of 7oz since. Should I be worried? I know it can be typical for babies to eat less after vaccinations but I am concerned. FTM here needing advice and experiences from others

I'm assuming you are offering a lot of bottles?  I would continue to offer and call your pedi today if he doesn't start eating more. You don't want him to lose any weight.

Yes I have been offering a lot. Thanks I will call if he doesn't eat this time!

I would keep offering LO food. Baby can get  dehydrated..his tongue should never be dry. He could also be in a little bit of discomfort, we know how we don't have much of an appetite when not feeling 100% so hes probably just having a bit of down time. If you become concerned then doesn't hurt to call your ped.
