For those who have already had 2 months shots, did you nurse while they gave them?

    Nope. Someone said on here they were advised not to as baby might clamp down when they get startled by the shot. Which makes sense and would hurt like a mother I'm sure.

    I just talked to ds and kept his eyes on me while rubbing his belly to distract him.

    Never even considered it. The nurses at our pedi's office just have a parent hold the baby's arms still while they lie on the table. I bet nursing would make it easier if they allowed it, though. Huh.

    We have shots in an hour so I guess we'll find out. It just crossed my mind since they had me nurse during shots when he was born.

    Nope. Also just held down baby's arms. DD took them like a champ. I heard about nursing them during shots from a friend but also considered her biting down. No thanks.

    They were so quick he didn't even cry for the first, cried for the second but it was so quick I was able to pick him up and console him in a matter of seconds.

    I didn't nurse, but they were really quick, so I just picked him up to console him as soon as I was able.

    We just had our appt this morning. I nursed him as fast as I could after. He didn't notice the first shot but then started crying. Only cried for a minute but that was the first time I've really heard him cry

    Just got them done today and no. She wouldn't have eaten anyway though. I tried to nurse afterward but she was not having it. She just wanted to be held. I shushed her and she fell asleep. She's been sleeping ever since - 2 hours later.

    The nurse said I could feed during-either nurse or bottle feed. I fed her a bottle and she didn't even flinch, then promptly slept for 3 hours straight.

    I meant scream bloody murder. Of course he cries but never like this.

    Just got back from DS's appt- it was no big deal!
