so Oakley has his 2 month vaccines today (😭😓) and I have a question for you all. My mom asked me…

I would ask your doctor.

My doctor said not too . & not to until he started acting fussy . but I wish I would've gave it to him before .

my doctor said to only use it when he was super fussy and nothing else would calm him down for the 78 hours after the shots

Jace gets his shots thursday and they told me to give him some so I plan on it. Do you have a chart from the doctor saying how much to give based on weight? If not I can send it to you.

I don't give Caleigha Motrin until she starts being fussy

We only use it when he gets super fussy after, or if he runs a fever.

I didn't have to give Orion any. So maybe wait, the less meds they have in their body the better... Atleast that's how I look at it

don't give it before and only after if they need it...my daughter only needed it later that night when she was fussy and running a low grade fever.

@jacesterlingsmommy yeah please text that to me when you can! Just in case I do give him Tylenol before the appt. I'm calling his doc now

..

Our ped said to give tylenol afterwards if he was fussy or ran a fever. Josiah cried for like 2 minutes then slept for hours... I cried more than he did lol. Move his legs lots for him afterwards since they don't know to relax the muscle sometimes they can get a little sore but other than that he'll be fine 😊

ask your pediatrician all babies respond differently my baby has hers this Friday so I'll ask beforehand

mine said to give a half hour before getting the shots. worked great

I have always given the kids a dose before. And they've never had any issues with the vaccines so Idk if it was the Tylenol or not but I'll do it with Taylor too I'm sure.

I get that ppl don't wanna load up their kids with meds unnecessarily but it's not like they're getting shots all the time so to me it's never been a big deal. Once every few months then every few years??

how did Oakleys shots go mama?

I cried 😭😭 seriously sobbed lol. He only cried for a couple minutes but it was one of those super "im in pain cries" where their face gets lobster red and they silent cry. So basically I did worse than he did hahaha

@jacesterlingsmommy,

Yeah I'm scared for his week after next. I think every mommy so far says its worse for them. He didnt really cry about it in the hospital, hopefully hes good about it. Yeah right lol. I haven't really heard his in pain cry except for a few times in the hospital when he'd pee after his circumcision. What did pedi say about tylenol?

They said to give it to him like as I was in the waiting room but we were running suuper late to the appt so i forgot it at home 😭 jace cried after his circumcision?!poor buddy 😁☠🕶
