My 4 month old just had his 16 week vaccines today and has been very irritable and crying a lot this afternoon, is this normal? How were your little ones after this vaccine dose?

Mine was the same the first day
Did it get better after the first day?

Hey, my little one was the same. She had hers at 4:45pm and was mostly unsettled every time she was awake until the next morning then fine. Hope your little one is better soon! Xx
ohhh 🥺 so it lasted a few hours?
I’ve seen some people on Facebook groups saying their little ones had issues for a good couple of days and up to a week with changes in the nighttime sleep patterns so im a bit nervous 😅

my doctors told me that because they have the meningitis one this is normal🥲it's so sly on them xx
oh so it’s the meningitis that cause the crankiness and crying?

Have you given panadol to help settle?

I had to take my baby to walking centre thru 111 tonight he had his yesterday and developed a fever with a temperature of 39.4 and h high heart rate and was extremely unsettled and Pugfy in the face x
no just calpol…
omg Im so sorry! Is he okay?? How soon after the vax did it happen? 🥺

Yeah just that evening really. How’s your little one doing now?

Apparently so, i do remember my 1st being bad off the meningitis jab.. my sons due it the 22nd xx
he’s developed a red swollen mark on the site of his injection, caught a fever and has generally just been more fussy :(
good luck 🥶
