12 Month Vaccine Issues

Did any of your LOs have weird side effects from their 12 month vaccines?  DD has low fever of 100.2 and developed a mild rash all over her body last night. Hopefully it goes away by Monday.

Re: 12 Month Vaccine Issues

  • She got the MMR, Hepatitis A, and Varicella vaccines

  • @pobrecita is right. That is normal for MMR. It's a live virus (as is varicella) and so sometimes there is more of an immune response. It can happen up to 10 days after vaccines. N actually ended up with a full blown measles like rash from head to toe about a week after. Not the actually measles but looked just like it. It went away on its own after about 3 days.

  • So is the rash from the vaccine all over LOs bodies? DS got his vaccines last Friday, and he has had a very low fever (enough to make him uncomfortable) for about the last 3 days. Also yesterday morning he got a rash just around his mouth that looks like little red pimples.

    I think it's just from teething, but FMIL is convinced it is from the MMR vaccine.

  • It is similar to little pimples, but they're pretty faint.  Glad to know this is kinda normal.

  • Normal for MMR. We only got 2 this time as we're stretching them out from now until 18 months (she'll get MMR at 18 months at the pedi's rec).
