Gets some Calpol in advance just in case. Thankfully Ellie didn't react to the first lot of jabs but did in with the second lot.

Make sure you have some calpol in and are ready to feed her straight away after the jabs. The magic boobie fixes everything hun!

 

[Melly+2]

yeah is shes anything like hope she wont cry much x

 

[mummykay]

as soon as uv got her home, give her calpol and whip a boob in her mouth and she will b right as rain after a kip!!
good luck, the first ones are always the worst!!

 

[Gemma & Jake]

They are horrible and however much you tell yourself it is for their own good it doesn't really make it any easier. The first time I went on my own and it is 2 injections(one in each leg) which makes it worse and poor little Jake screamed his head off. The second time it is two injections again so I took my mum with me and made her hold Jake while I stood in the corner nearly in tears LOL. They do cry when they have them done but although the first time Jake was a little bit whingy I gave him some calpol and he was fine then and the second time he wasn't whingy at all afterwards. I am dreading his third lot of injections as they have to have three which I personally think is a bit too much at once for a little baby. Anyway good luck and just remember it is over quickly and it is for their own good.

I know how you're feeling, Sophie's getting hers done on Thursday, but Sam is going to hold her while she's getting them done!

shell be fine hun its better for her to have the jabs

 

[mum2A&L]

we gave alice calpol and it knocked her out flat! she has never slept so much in day!

She cried for about 10 seconds, and then fell back to sleep.


I hope ellouise & Sophie jabs go ok

Yes my tip is Calpol before too- definitely works for us! Good luck, it is horrid I know but so are all the nasties that they will prevent.
