Synagis, Fever and Tylenol :(

[Deleted User][Deleted User] member

We got our second shot today. Last time, there were no side effects except for a bit of poopy diapers for a day. This time, DS is running a fever, 100.3. I gave him Tylenol and poor thing is sleeping. His doc said its normal but I want to know how long will this fever persist? What are your experiences/side effects? I hate seeing him so defenseless

    Poor guy :-(. DD hasn't had any side effects from synagis, but she has from vaccines and the fever has always gone away by the following day. I hope he's feeling better soon!

    We aren't doing synagis (not eligible) but every time he's had shots he's gotten a fever. It's only lasted a day each time and a dose or two of Tylenol was all he needed and slept it off.

    Hmmmm ... our LO gets a fever after he gets shots, for about 36 hours but he didn't show any side effects from synagis. If your LO is 6+ months you can use motrin. I'm mobile so I can't see any tickers. Motrin worked wonders for his 6 month shots. Keep in mind too, they don't call it a fever unless it's over 103 degrees in babies. Our LO got up to 102 after his 4 month shots and I was freaking out but the pedi said it was fine. Best wishes!!!!

    Thanks everyone. He continued to be hot through the night, but he slept and fed as usual. He was back to himself this Morning with no issues. Thank you ;)
