MommyNurse Tip: Infant Vaccinations

Most mom’s probably know this, but just in case….

BEFORE taking your child to the doctor for vaccinations (about 30 minutes before), go ahead and give your child a dose of tylenol. This will not only help with the discomfort, but it will also get ahead of those pesky post-vaccine fevers. Then continue with tylenol as directed for the rest of the day. One mom was complaining about how fussy her baby was after he received vaccines, I encouraged her to follow this advice, and the next time I saw her, she gave me a huge thank you because her once fussy/feverish baby, was his pleasant self post vaccines!

Disclaimer: This is not medical advice, as always, I recommend asking your provider for specific questions.
