Why Won't She Stop Crying

jadesh101 · Nov 8th, 2009, 09:35 AM

She has her first jabs on Wednesday and ever since she has been unsettled and crying through out the day she will not sleep longer then 3-5 minutes at a time, taken her to the doctors he said she was fine and maybe fighting a little virus off because her temp is unsettled as well. She is fine at night !!!!!!!! It is getting ever so tiring now

and I just don't know what to do now Iv'e tried calpol !!!

How is she eating for you? Is she pooping and peeing normally? Keep an eye on her temp. Something is OBVIOUSLY bothering her, or she wouldn't be carrying on like she is. Could be something simple as gas, or it could be more serious. Which shots did she get? The doctor didn't think it was a reaction to any of them?

Can you give her some tylenol to see if that helps?

Is she nursing or formula fed? I'm just wondering if maybe her tummy is upset by something...

If this continues, I would bring her back in. Trust your instincts and don't let the doctors brush you off. MOMMY DOES know BEST!

In the meantime, try singing to her, rocking her, taking her for a walk in the carriage, even a drive in the car... Anything to get her to sleep a little while.

Good Luck. I hope she feels better soon. Keep me posted on how she does for you!

WOW so many questions well her eating seems to be ok she is pooing and weeing frequently she is letting her gas go find she had her first injections so DTap/IPV/HiP that is Diphtheria, tetnus, pertussis (wooping cough) polio, and Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib). Also in the other jab was Pneumococcal vaccine (PCV). No reaction to them, she is breast fed due to the medication I was on. I think so far today she seems abit more settled but im not going to say n e more just yet just incase i jinx it lol

Have you tried nurofen for babies, just that Calpol didn't touch pain for my LO but nurofen was amazing!! Just check the age range on the bottle first, as I'm not sure what age you can use from x

Do you swaddle her when shes upset, sometimes they just need to be reminded of being in the womb to calm them poor little thing and poor you, its not much fun but I'm sure it won't last too long!

If its no better in a day or so go back to docs x

i agree with angeljewel. i prefer nurofen. u can use both at same time if it's that bad, though as she's so little i'd try not 2. if my kids are really poorly i give them calpol nurofen 2hrs later and then calpol when it's ok 4 next dose. could she be teething? u can try bonjela 4 babies.

logans mama has put great advice about trying to settle her with rocking, singing and so on... some babies can be little grumps for a week after jabs bless them...guess it depends how it affects the little mites

be careful with keeping using calpol without checking with a doc...i've started giving it to isabel recently and noticed it says not to use for more than 3 days without consulting a doc

hope she settles soon
