8 week shots- no reaction day of but irritable day after?

Is this possible? DD was happy as a clam yesterday after shots but right now she is a crankpot I don't want to give her the infant drops unless its absolutely necessary

Re: 8 week shots- no reaction day of but irritable day after?

i think its possible... every child is different so i would think everyone could react differently too

i would call my ped before giving tylenol

Re: 8 week shots- no reaction day of but irritable day after?

this is completely my baby.

i would call and see what they say about drops.

Re: 8 week shots- no reaction day of but irritable day after?

My ped always lets us know what shots are likely to make a baby cranky, and gives us the okay for tylenol after shots.

I think 2m and 3m where definitely one of those, but I just dealt with the crankiness.

Re: 8 week shots- no reaction day of but irritable day after?

This was definately my DD. The crankiness lasted about 2 days after the shots and then she was back to her happy smiling self! I ended up not giving her anything and just rode it out.

Our ped said that the tetanus part of the DTaP shot might not cause a reaction until the following day.
