 Topic: Vaccination - Delayed Reaction?
Posted: 06 June 2008 at 10:34am |

Hi all
My son, Oliver, had his six week vaccinations on Wednesday, and he was reasonably unsettled that afternoon, but slept and fed fine. Then yesterday he fed really badly (already having trouble with that due to Silent Reflux) and was really unsettled, crying etc all afternoon and evening. Finally went to sleep at 9om but when he woke for the next feed at 12am, he wouldn't take the bottle again. We gave him a dose of Pamol and finally managed to get some milk into him around 1am. Has anyone else had this sort of delayed reaction from the vaccinations, or do you think it is something else entirely?
Thanks
Amanda

I would ring the nurse at your GP clinic and just query it if you are worried... but if he doesn't have a temp or anything and is feeding ok with the pamol, I would probably give it a few days and see if he comes right, it could just be a slightly delayed reaction.
ETA: Chloe has always been a little unsettled and then about 6-12 hours later it really kicks in, and it takes her a few days to come right.

Maddi had her Jabs in the evening and that night and all the next day she was really sleepy. But the next night and floowing day she was very unsettled and had to use pamol to get her to calm down enought to feed. I just assumed it was from the Jabs. She came right on the 3rd day.

Hi.
My little girl had a bad delayed reaction to 6 wk jabs too. Had jabs at 9am Thurs, bit grumpy and off food Thurs nite, but Fri & sat She had not much at all. Bad enough that the midwife sent us to the dr. She was sure just a reaction and only suggested that next time we do the injections separate so we know which one was causing the problems. Alothough I did leave with a referral for the hospital emergency if she didn't increase feeds.
I wonder if it is because they have combined one of the vaccines because my other two never had this sort of reaction.
Hope this helps.
