Delayed reaction to 4 month shots?

RanFan28 · April 2014

LO has shots on Monday. He was fine the rest if the day, gave him a little Tylenol before bed because he seemed to be hurting a little and he was fine yesterday. He started nursing around 9:30 and I put him in his bed a little before 10, which is normal. And, he's been up every hour since. Not normal. Around 12 he screamed for 30 mins, and I couldn't decipher what was wrong. He wants to nurse or cry and will only sleep on me. I'm wondering if any of you had a delayed reaction to 4 month shots? Maybe the rotavirus is hurting his tummy? TIA!

Sounds like it could be from the shots. Those were basically Bens exact reactions.

It could be a reaction to the shots, IME it usually takes about a day for it to effect them if it's going to.

We managed to get through the 4 month shots unscathed but his 2 month shots were awful. Thankfully his night sleep wasn't really affected but he wouldn't nap all day long and pretty acted the same way as your baby. It lasted a couple days.

My son was fine the whole day after he got his 4 months shot ( he got them at 9 in the morning). The next day he was fussy and had temperature. He also wanted to be held and slept a lot.

Thanks y'all! I guess I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something else by chalking it up to shots.

LO got hers Monday too. That day was okay but Tuesday she was upset and sore I think. And last night was a bad night. She didn't want to go to sleep and then just wanted to be held. Even after Tylenol. She's better today

DS had his shots on Monday too. He was fine Monday afternoon and yesterday. He's a whiney mess today so I think it absolutely could be a reaction to the shots. And I think sometimes their little legs just hurt from the shots. I know my arms get sore after shots for a few days.

Arlo had a pretty bad reaction to his 4-month shots last Tuesday (he was fine with the 2-month shots). He got total insomnia from them for a couple of days after having slept though the night for the last couple of months. I had to nurse him pretty continuously, and now our entire schedule is thrown off. It's one week later and he's still waking up at night. I hate everything.
