My baby has his vaccination 2 months shots , he was late as he is now 3 months he take RV and pnemocoocal vaccines when he back i nursed him and sleep for two hour then wake up he was restless and crying and his temperature was 101.5 and the injection place was red and slightly swollen and he cry every time I touch his leg for diaper or to carry him he couldn't ly on this side so he had to nurse all the time on one breast I take off all his clothes use washing cloth with tap water and few drops of alcohol and wash his whole body this left him for 10 minutes then dressed him nurse him and give him Tylenol drops and he sleep when he wake up his temp was 98.6 and he was fine nurse and sleep again
should I keep it like this or still had to call the doctor I actually did what exactly in his instruction booklet he gave it to us
It is normal that the injection site be tender and a low-grade temp after vaccinations (not everyone has this but some do). See how he is a little bit later...right now I would not stress.
I don't entirely understand the question, but I think you did fine. If the fever has passed and he's no longer fussy, I wouldn't worry about it. If the fever comes back or he seems really irritable, I'd call the doc just to check in, but I bet they tell you that he's fine.
And I want to say "good job" for vaccinating. Fevers are a common side effect, but are way less damaging than the diseases you vaccinated for.
I follow the standard recommendations for calling. Under 3 months, over 100.4. 3-6 months, over 101.0.
Putting a call in to the dr. is nearly effortless, and completely worth the reassurance!
I agree with Jane and Lynn... you did exactly what you were supposed to do and the fever broke, so I wouldn't worry. My daughter got a fever with her shots too and I just gave her Tylenol and lots of snuggles and she was just fine. It's very common.
