MMRV

My little boy is due his 12 month jabs tomorrow, what is everyone’s opinion on the new MMRV vaccine 😭

I think it's great! Saved us £150 which we would have had to spend on the chickenpox vax privately!

My little one had a touch of fever the night after but no other side effects and I don't think he had it any worse than my eldest who only had the MMR one (and we had to pay for her chickenpox vaccine privately before my 2nd was born because she somehow managed to avoid the infection despite several outbreaks at nursery 🤷🏻‍♀️)

My son just had his, bit of temperature next day but now absolutely fine and that was 4 days ago.
My eldest son got hospitalised with chicken pox so didn’t want to risk it again.

My eldest has had the chicken pox vaccine and you wouldn’t have known - he went into nursery for the rest of the day with no issues 🙂

Long car journeys with 5 month old baby

My family live about 1 hour away, more so 1.30 hour with traffic, I’d like to start going to visit whilst on maternity with my baby but I’m anxious for the long car journeys, especially if we get held up in traffic. My baby is usually ok in the car but I’ve only ever done short trips with her and the only horrific time was during the heatwave where she was tired and overheating even in her nappy. Any advice on how to keep her preoccupied in the back with nobody there to comfort her and without stopping? There are no services during this journey so I don’t plan on stopping. I play lullabies and let her hear my voice if she cries. She has her toy hanging down from the car seat handle bar. Is there anything I can attach to the car seat for her to look at or keep her busy? Any tips? I always make sure she’s had a feed before we set off etc… I can’t bear the thought of her crying whilst on the motorway and there’s nothing I can do!

Advise on 3 month olds movements

Hey guys I need some advise is this normal behaviour for my 3 month old? She does this quite often, mainly in the day time. She frails her hands around a lot. I have no idea why she does that but she seems to be doing it more often than before. Please ignore the blanket it’s the only way we can keep her dummy in otherwise it will just keep falling out her mouth.

Injections

My baby had his injections on Friday and since then he has been feeding less at night, he used to take a 120ml bottle no problem but now during the night he only takes about 80, he drinks 120 in the day per feed but it does take longer than it used to, should I be worried? He’s having wet nappies no problem.
