Help! Reaction to MMR booster

[Azana]

I can't remember reaction to MMR being bad - bar 7 days later. Got booster done this am (I know I know very late but very unorganised) - we seem to be having a reaction - has been screaming "I want daddy" for an hour now after waking from nap. Have practically forced some calpol down her so assuming it will tail off....

How did your LO react - assuming not to worry....yet.

Excuse typing trying to console DD - but no substitute for daddy clearly

Aww poor thing. Could she just be remembering what happened rather than feeling ill?

Really hope she settles down for you soon :)

OK I think the Calpol has kicked in - she is now asking for easter egg and to watch thee bit where Nemo is naughty - the screaming has stopped - and I have stripped her to her nappy to be comfy. I think it is a reaction so will keep on with the calpol....thanks Lpp

Gosh - that's very early for a booster????? It's usually in the pre-school booster ie between 3 and 5.....
Am a bit :huh: now...
Anyway, I expect calpol, hugs, chocolate, more hugs, cbeebies and a run around in the garden may help.....
If her temp goes sky high or she becomes lethargic/has problems breathing etc etc call the doc/an ambulance

Oh thank goodness - it can be quite scary when they have a reaction.

If she's hot again pop a wet cloth on her head - worked wonders with mine the other day.

That's what I thought....but round here they are supposed to have it a few months after the first MMR - wonder why that is?

Nemo is working his magic for the mo' thanks everyone. I can't believe I am watching the same scene over and over again...well I can.....heigh ho whatever works.

C-beebies has been dismissed by her as "rubbish" - good to see we agree on that one

Glad to hear things have settled Az, bless her, must be horrible for them. How old is she? I'd agree with what Shamu says, and just keep an eye on her general demeanor and temp.

Elise has got her MMR on Thursday and I'm not looking forward to it :-( :no:

Actually, I've just thought of a question.....

Well, maybe I'm behind on the latest DoH rules, but it's the first I've ever heard of a booster that soon after the first. Does she get a third with the preschool boosters? And was it only the MMR or did she have her diptheria, tetanus and polio boosters too?

Anyway, glad she seems better and :lol: at cbeebies being deemed rubbish - we're currently watching Mr Benn which is going down a storm (quite a good joke actually, as we're watching the "pirates" episode :D)

It was just mmr booster I think.....

Suzie the mmr was fine btw - just a reaction 7 days later of being a bit "off".
