A had her four-month vaccinations today.

Still, she was okay within a few minutes, which was good. I suspect these things just get worse as they get ( Read more... )

Oooh, poor baby! Hope she feels better today!

She's doing really well today, so looks like we've escaped any nasty side effects. Phew!

What's gastro vaccine? I don't think they have that here. I'm glad that she was ok with the needle, but I'm sorry it went worse than last time.

In Aus they get vaccinated against Rotavirus which is the most common cause of severe gastroenteritis. It's fairly new (well, was introduced in 2007) and is administered at the 2,4 and 6 month immunisations.

Ah, gotcha. So only one more of those for you. :) 2/3 of the way done!
