babies, Tylenol & shots
I've heard advice both for and against giving Tylenol before he gets his vaccination shots. Apparently, the argument against giving it is that it can mess with the effectiveness of some vaccines...? We have his 4-month series tomorrow.
What do you do?
Re: babies, Tylenol & shots
I'm sure it depends on the kid, but we never bothered with pain meds before or after and James was always fine. He got boob right after shots to help soothe the initial pain, but sometimes he even didn't want that and was fine after 10-60 seconds.
thanks. Colby screamed immediately after his 2 month shots, but seemed fine after - with some soothing booby milk.
DH's sis mentioned giving it before, so now that's what he wants to do - and he's bringing Munchkin to meet me at the appointment, since I'll be coming from work. Thanks for helping me convince him it's not necessary!

You could always call and see what the doctor recommends too. Mine recommended against giving it before and not after unless really necessary. Maybe that would help him feel better about it.
