You're not a bad mum at all. It can be really tough on them. They've never experienced anything like it before, and can't understand why it hurts. You know it's to protect them from worse things, but they don't. Hopefully she will feel better in a few days

It's very sad, I was so heartbroken for the jabs. Calpol helps

@Dominique she’s had calpol but nothing seems to work x

Ah bless. If she's been inconsolable, perhaps try 111?

My little boy was so grouchy and screamed alot the week after the jabs. He’s come through it now and is much happier so hopefully it’s the same for your little one!

You're not a bad mum. The diseases the vaccines protect against are way worse for them than the side effects. For what it's worth, I think you're a great mum for getting her protected. Also babies go through a leap at 10 weeks where they can get fussy and clingy, could very well be that. You got this, she'll get through it ❤️
