Poll: How was LO after 4 month shots?

Cara1024 · May 2014

After the initial crying from the shots, how did your LO do afterwards?

amt0312 · May 2014

Completely unaffected, which was completely different from her 2 mo shots.

DD slept a lot and had diarrhea from the rotavirus oral vaccine (just like the 2 month vaccines). I really hate that rotavirus one, and I'm thrilled she only has to get it once more.

DD spit out most of the rotavirus vaccine at her 2 month appointment but got nearly every drop at her 4 month. Her tummy was upset for a couple days after, so she was much more fussy than she was after the 2 month shots. I'm glad she only gets it one more time too.

DS was totally fine. I took the day off of work thinking he would be sleepy and wanting to nurse all day like after the 2 month shots, but he seemed completely unaffected. He also only cried for maybe a minute and then was all smiles afterwards.

We go for ours next week. J got a fever after her 2 month shots, so I am expecting the same with her 4 month shot

I was surprised that LO responded about 24 hours AFTER the vac and reacted for about 48 hours. He slept and fussed like it was his job.

I'm on an alternate schedule, so 1/2 one day and 1/2 two weeks later. She was fine each time, knock on wood...DS was the same...never an issue

DD had a fever after her 2 month shots, and was a bit fussy and sleepy, so that's what I was preparing for. She had her 4 month shots yesterday and slept for most of the day, and no fever this time thankfully.

I would have selected two options if possible. She was very fussy ave had a slight fever and didn't feel well. We had to hold her through her naps and she fussed in her sleep as well.

nolagal79 · May 2014

Totally unaffected from them - thankfully. She has fever now (6 days after the shots) but I think it's too far removed to be related to that.

DS was extremely sleepy and not as hungry as usual. I honestly really had to think about which shots those were because he's 7 months old now

chicki1012 · May 2014

Not affected at all with 2 mo and 4 mo shots. Not sleepier or more cranky or fever.

SarahA918 · May 2014

DS was still in the NICU so they did one shot a day for four days. He was basically miserable and caught a stomach bug at the same time. He had his six months shot a few weeks ago all in one day and he was a little cranky but slept a lot.

pinkyxboo · May 2014

She ran a slight fever but other then that she seemed just fine.

DS2 came down with a cold the second day after his vax, and it went around our family. Not sure if it was from the vaccines or from the pedi's office. When the cold came to me it hit me hard in the stomach, which made me worry it was the rotovirus that was going around. We all took about a week to recover.

My DR ended up holding her vaccines at her four month appt. DD was exposed to hand foot and mouth DZ. And we didn't want to not know if she got a fever if it was from HFM or the vaccines. I also didn't want her feeling yucky and on top of that get HFM. Luckily she appears not to have gotten it. YAY!

bnik · May 2014

we are going next week. 2 months were awful, so im making my husband go with.

WHO CHOSE ANTI-VAX? Better have been an accident...

cnctf · May 2014

DD had a slight fever after her 2 month shots. Other then that, she was ok. Today is her 4 month shots, and I hope shes gonna feel ok.

Was wondering the same thing.

Just got DS's shots done this morning and he was terribly fussy all day. He has a fever and his legs are red. I finally got him to fall asleep, but he keeps crying out like he's in pain. I've given him Tylenol and put warm washcloth's on his legs like the handout said. He's miserable. I hope he's better tomorrow. Poor DD wants to play, but DS just wants to be held. I hope everybody's LO's are feeling better.

RedSaffron · May 2014

For the person who chose anti-vax, I hope it was an accidental glitch. If not, I have some choice words, especially with this measles and polio outbreak going on.

cnctf · May 2014

DD didnt have a fever last night or this morning, but was fussy and cried a bit like she was in pain. Hoping she feels better today.

ccip82 · May 2014

DS seemed unaffected by the shots. He had them Yesterday and I have yet to notice anything different.

To the person who is choosing to not vaccinate their child.

ashleywiz · May 2014

She. Is. Miserable. We had shots on Tuesday afternoon and she is STILL fussier than normal- but her fever finally came completely down last night. We woke up with 101F on Wednesday morning, and yesterday she finally came down under 99F after dinner. She is so conflicted on what she wants-- one minute she will want all the cuddles, and the next she's like, get the fluck away from me, yo. SOO, I'm praying it's a combo of wonder week and the shots, and not just the shots.

ashleywiz · May 2014

OH- and Tuesday night she had a poop that practically went up to her ears in explosiveness...thank you rotovirus oral vax.
