Diahorrea after injections?
Hi all, Biba had her immunisations yesterday and after a very fractious evening she went to sleep ok and seemed fine first thing. Since about midday she has had 5 dirty nappies whereas she only normally only has one, she has also spent the afternoon having a constant whimper which has now been compounded by the fact that she is very tired.
As she is BF i know it's usual to have loose stools, but i think that this goes a bit beyond that.
Did anyone else have something similar following immunisations or do you think i have cause for concern? Am wondering whether to give her some calpol, but she doesnt have a fever and it caused her to vomit last night - dont want to end up dehydrating her!
Thanks xxx

Calpol may soothe her a bit - try giving it to her using a syringe though as it goes down a bit easier! I remember giving Logan calpol with the spoon and he choked on it and proper screamed for about 10 minutes!
She also seems to be very sniffly and coughing a bit. I'm wondering if she's slightly more susceptible to all the colds flying around as she's fighting off the jab effects too?
Dreading the next set - three next time. Although she never cried having these ones done - I did!! x
Snugglenush thats a really good idea about the calpol, Biba reacts the same way so i may try that if needed next time, and Chikidee she also has developed a cough which has been so bad it has made her sick, but again that has passed, hope your little one picks up soon xx
