Did the 12 week jabs give your lo any side effects?

Lilmiss1 · Apr 4th, 2012, 02:53 AM

The 8 week jabs made ds v sleepy, he had the 12 week ones yesterday morning, but he's had no side effects so far! Hoping I'm lucky or could it be that the side effects haven't kicked in yet.
What side effects did your lo have and how soon after the jabs did they kick in. Thanks x

We didn't get anything after the 12 week ones. So hopefully you'll be fine.
I've heard the 16 week ones can be the worst... x

My LO only just had his 2 month shots, and my poor little guy was a mess for a few days afterwards! He threw up, had a fever, and just was very fussy.

I'm SO nervous about his next set of shots--they're actually at 4 months I think...and I'm nervous b/c of the reaction that he just had.

I'm glad your LO didn't react! That is wonderful.

ETA: I wonder if shots are given at different times in the UK? I think his next set is at 4 months, but maybe it's six? Ugh. Can't remember!

The first set were the only ones which bothered my LO apart from crying at the time.

My son had his 12 week jabs a smidge late at 14 weeks but he was fine! He was over it by the time we got home from the drs x

My dd was the same, 8 week ones made her sleepy, 12 week had no effect on her, she actually started giggling when the nurse was doing them lol. 16 week ones are 3 sets so not looking forward to that x

Where I live (not uk anymore) they have 2 month, 4month then 6month jabs. After the 2month set my LO got terrible diarrhoea and projectile vomiting

She had the 6months ones yesterday (bit late!) and one of the 8"ingredients" injected was the same as the 2month set so I'm anxiously awaiting nappy explosions etc!!

x (sleepiness is quite normal tho I think)
