1 year old jab . Help please

My baby had her jab on Wednesday she had all 4 injections in one go I had no idea we could split it into 2 which I m so angry about…
So basically since Wednesday my baby doesn’t wanna eat anything (she was such a good eater) and the sleeping became a nightmare! ( she was an amazing sleeper)
She doesn’t wanna go down for bedtime,she waking multiple times in the night and waking so early in the morning.. and it’s all since Wednesday. She use to sleep 12/13 h over night now we lucky if she gets 10h sleep.. I can tell she’s struggling so much she also has fever giving her calpol but she’s so uncomfortable.
Does anyone experienced the same with this jab ,does it gonna past ? Honestly she’s so tired and trying everything to help but nothing seems like working .

Personally, I don't think splitting them is a good idea. Almost all of the symptoms are caused by the MMR Vaccine, and it's then causing the discomfort and possible fever fo happen multiple times instead of just the 1. The nurse said the symptoms could last 10 days.

My little girl hasn't been too bad since her vaccines, just suuuuper grumpy, but we did go through a regression exactly like what your describing when she turned 12 months old and it was hell, it lasted a full week, difficulty going to bed, waking a few times and also waking super early. It will eventually pass.

Yeah I was also thinking about regression but it’s literally all started as soon as she been injected so really not sure but for example today took me 2.5 h to put her to sleep.
She fallasleep alone with her milk in her cot (usually) but now as soon as I m trying to leave the room or she realises I m not there she starts screaming until I go in and pick her up .

I'm convinced that a sickness or something can trigger regressions. My little girl has only ever had the 12 month one, and she was pretty sick the week leading up to it, so maybe the injections just triggered the regression, but it's also maybe worse than what it would be because she's uncomfortable.

When we had the regression I spent max 30 minutes trying to get her to sleep and then I would just bring her back down to play until she was proper exhausted and then she would go straight to sleep, I had to cuddle and rock her for the week instead of the usual just lay her down and let her go off herself.
