Vaccinations

Just nervous about bubs getting his first vaccines and curious how everyone else did. I was thinking of getting them done one at a time rather than all in the one appointments, did anyone else do this? How was bubs ‘recovery time’ after?

We got them all at once. Bub had an afternoon where he was unsettled and cranky. We gave him baby Panadol and he was much happier after that

I spoke to my GP and he suggested I give them to bubs all at once but if I want to spread them out he said he will. I’m located North Brisbane. Did you spread them out? If so, how long did you wait between vaccines?

We did all at once and didn’t have any issues, bub was extra sleepy that afternoon and night but was completely back to normal the day after. We also gave her the meningococcal vaccine a week after as it’s now part of the program and were advised to give panadol before and after. Bub was a bit more grumpy after that one but haven’t had any issues with any of them! 😊

We have bubs Panadol before and had them done all at once in the same leg. He cried for about 15 seconds and was a bit sleepier that afternoon. Nothing else to note for him

Better to have one bad day than many in my opinion. I opted to get them all at once.

just ordered the book - thanks for the recommendation 🙂 can you please send me the details of this doctor also? I didn’t realise it impacts Centrelink. Would love to chat more about how the works if you can x

Bubs had them all at once, she was distressed afterwards but took about ten-fifteen for me to get her to sleep afterwards and she slept crazy amounts for the next two days. She was a little more moody than normal but we just gave her some Panadol when she wasn’t feeling the greatest. Had a bit of a fever the first night. But apart from that she just slept it off.

My poor baby didn’t react very well to the vaccinations and was doing poo screams, I think from the rotavirus vaccine! The pain and diarrhea subsided after 24 hours and he’s just been a little extra fussy

Sleeping bag

8 week old in sleeping bag for first time as big enough! Do you feed your child in the night whilst in the sleeping bag or taken them out, feed then transfer back to sleeping bag before putting down?

Leaky nappy help

What nappies are you using to stop leaks?? We use pampers ultra dry size 5, and for the past few nights he has lashed through and we’ve had to completely change him during the night. Last night he leashed through twice!! He sleeps on his front and stays leaks through at the top of his leg where the tabs connect. Didn’t know whether to size up, he has a bit of a belly on him but he’s smack in middle of weight guidance so shouldn’t need too

My 6 month old makes no eye contact with me and doesn’t respond when I call him. Can this just be a phase or personality trait as apposed to autism

New born

Finally had my baby girl via C-section on the 18th, everything has been so far. But I’ve noticed she’s very fussy and cries a lot. I’ve been trying to exclusively breastfeed. The lactation consultant at the hospital said I did look like I’m making enough milk for her. She was latching on good at the hospital and now here at home, she doesn’t seem to want to latch at all. She’s been crying a lot and very fussy. I’m just wondering is she’s colic or like maybe she just doesn’t want the breast anymore?

5.30am wakeups 😫😴

My 15 week old has started waking up about 5.30am and is really hard to settle back down - it’s like he thinks it’s time to wake up for the day. He used to go to bed at 9pm and was up at 8am but now he goes to bed between 7.30-8pm as he’s knackered by then but waking up at 5.30am😴. Any advice to get him to sleep a little longer in the morning?! Even an extra hour would be lovely 🤣
