Preparation and Post-Vaccination Care

Preparing for Vaccination

Good preparation helps ensure the vaccination process goes smoothly and reduces anxiety for both parents and their little one:

  1. Bring your child in on a day they are healthy:If your child has a high fever, a severe cough, a runny nose, or is unwell, the vaccination should be postponed. Please consult the doctor.
  2. Bring your child for vaccination on schedule:Vaccinating on schedule is important for building a complete immune response.
  3. Disclose health history:Inform the doctor or nurse about any history of drug allergies, past illnesses, chronic conditions, or medications the child is currently taking.
  4. Bring the vaccination record book every time:To ensure an accurate and complete record of vaccinations.
  5. Ensure your child is fed or has had milk:To prevent hypoglycemia or dizziness.
  6. Prepare a toy or comfort object:To help distract and reduce fear during the injection.

Post-Vaccination Care

After vaccination, some children may experience minor side effects. This is normal and indicates that the body is building immunity:

  1. Observe for any unusual symptoms:Closely monitor your child for about 30 minutes after the injection to watch for signs of a severe allergic reaction (which is very rare).
  2. Fever and Local Reactions (Pain, Swelling, Redness):
    • FeverYour child may have a low-to-moderate fever. If the fever is above 38.5°C, you can give them a sponge bath or administer a dose of children's paracetamol as recommended by the doctor.
    • welling, Redness, and Warmth at the Injection Site:Apply a cold compress to the area to reduce pain, swelling, and redness.
    • These symptoms usually disappear on their own within 1-2 days.
  3. Ensure the child drinks enough water or milk:To prevent dehydration.
  4. Allow for adequate rest:Avoid strenuous activities.
  5. Other side effects:Some children might be lethargic, fussy, or have a slight loss of appetite, which should improve on its own.
  6. When to see a doctor immediately:
    • A very high fever that doesn't come down after a sponge bath or fever-reducing medication.
    • Inconsolable crying, extreme lethargy, or refusal to drink milk or eat.
