after noas second i had given calpol n he slept aswell for hours nn woke up happy

Injections are horrible! I felt awful when lo had his! I was told by a nurse to have lo BF while he had the injections as they don't notice as much, unfortunately lo decided to stop BF before I could do that.
I spoke to a friend, who advised me to give lo calpol about 30mins to 1 hour before lo's jabs and it really worked for us (at least it seemed to). Lo cried a lot less and seemed to calm down a lot faster, I think it was because we didn't have to wait for the calpol to get into system and start working.
Lots of mummy cuddles are a definate must! They made me feel a little better too, I spent a lot of the time crying because I took my baby to the doctors and hurt him! Silly I know!
I hope everyone's gorgeous babies are feeling a little better xxx

Yes I think Aiden was same as Noah! Much better thSt way!x
Mookie I agree I cried when he had them you just feel l awful but have to remember it's to protect them from a lot worse xx

 

[mookie]

Yeah I know, I felt so bad because I couldn't explain to him that it hurts now but will protect him in the long run. I made OH come to the other jabs for support and I made him hold lo so it was daddy's fault and mummy could make it better It was really mean, I know!!!

Hehe Mookie that's what I did with Lizzie's - she calmed down when OH handed her to me afterwards but then started screaming again when she went back to him! He didn't like that much lol so I have to hold her next time
Will defo try giving calpol in advance

 

[mookie]

I'm really lucky as OH didn't mind! I hope all goes well next time! I think lo has to have his next set at 3 years so I have a while to prepare myself xx
