Well the time has come for my DD to get her first round of shots! I cant believe that she is 2 months old already(actual age not adjusted). How did your LO's react to their first round of shots and do I have to do anythjing different since she is a preemie? I have been through the shots with my other DD but she was born a full term baby.

    My DD got her 2 month shots in the NICU and we had them separate the shots over three days as an extra precaution against reactions. Normal protocol is to give them together-we just wanted to play it safe. She didn't have any trouble with any of them and we plan to give her the 4 month shots in one pedi visit next week (after a long conversation with her pedi).

    Good luck!

    Ds did great with his 2 month shots. He was fussy though for a few days after the 4 month shots and we're still dealing with some residual fussiness from the 6 month shots he just got.

    Hope the shots go smoothly tomorrow! The only thing I did differently was only allow two shots at a time. I think he was due for three shots, so I came back a few days later to get the last one. LO did pretty good, he slept more for most the remaining day.

    We just had the first 2 month shots at the pedi last tuesday. LO was VERY fussy for the rest of the day and part of the next. He is going back for 2 more on Monday. Like PP we are going to do two at a time.
