I'm Currently Feeling:  | First injections
Frankie had her first immunisations today. I know that it can make some babies get temperatures and can be distressing at the time but is it normal for a LO to sleep then wake up very distressed?
Frankie cried, had a short bfeed. Slept for about 1 and half hours but then woke up and cried hysterically for about an hour. I have just about managed to feed her but she has cried herself to sleep again. Jonny was never like this. I have given her 2.5ml of calpol. Any suggestions? |

| I would say its quite normal, a lot of babies dont respond well to injections, may go off feeding, sleep more and seem generally grouchy, and get a temperature.
Try not to worry, she is prob just not very impressed about the whole thing. Noah hated me for a day or two afterwards, made me feel like a right cow! | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling:  | Lewis was exactly the same Lynnie.
Calpol helped him - the following day he was back to his normal self.
Hope things settle down x |

I'm Currently Feeling: | She is sleeping and settled now but she has a huge bruise on her left thigh. It is about two inches long and an inch wide. No wonder she was crying bless her! |
