Hey Kerry...
its the same vaccinations that she received in her 2 months vacc...so if she did well that tine she will do well this time around...DS got vaccinated 2 weeks ago and he did better this time, last time he had a temp and very irritable, this time he was just irritable..
good luck

Thanks heaps Nanay, DD was irritable last time as well.
At least I know what to prepare for.

Cheers
Kerry

My daughter had 3 needles for her 2 and 4 month injections.

Surely you have a child health book, with all the information about vaccination? You wouldn't just rock up at the docs without reading what they're about to do, would you? :confused:

When you get there, ask them to explain each needle to you. I did some reading, but then asked when I got there too. The nurse was pretty nice and explained everything to me before she did anything.

Three needles. Two at once (each thigh) and then a third.

Hi Kerry76

My DS had 3 injections at his 4 mth vax - same as what he had at his 2 mth vax.
Good luck - it's always difficult to watch isn't it, but for us personally the decision to vaccinate is one we are very happy and comfortable with. I just hate needles myself so I empathise greatly when my DS has his!
