I had mine - and didnt feel a thing - not at the time of the shot or even days later (no arm ache - no redness - nothing)

Then I had the regular flu vaccine (Im in the U.S. so very standard over here) & I felt it much more when I had the shot & then had an achey arm for about 24 hours. I was thinking maybe its how good the person giving the shot is? Or what exact spot they use? I was just guessing though No other side affects from either shot & LO never had any change in movements, etc.

did the nurse / doctor explain things to you before hand or do they just get on with it, so to speak? xx

I had mine done through occupational health at work, and the nurse went through a questionnaire and fully answered any questions. She was very thorough before she went ahead.
