Question

My baby is 100 days old, and they received the DPT and polio vaccines today. They were fine for the first hour, fell asleep after the shot, but have been crying since coming home. Is this normal? No fever.

Answer

Based on your description, the baby’s crying and distress after vaccination could be due to a pain response. There’s no need to worry if the baby has a normal temperature and bowel movements; this is a normal reaction. This is the suggestion for the question “What are the side effects of a 100-day-old baby receiving the DPT and polio vaccines?” I hope this helps you. Wishing you health and happiness every day!
