Please Remind Me About Tylenol And Shots

DD is going today for her 3rd round of shots (her 6 MOS appt). I can't seem to recall (old age Chat Icon ) if I have to give her Tylenol before leaving for the appointment. I know its always every 4 hours for 24 hrs after but I think I had given it to her before too when she had her 2 and 4 mos shots.

Thanks
(I've got the mommy brain)

Re: Please Remind Me About Tylenol And Shots

Tylenol won't do anything for the pain of the shot itself, its purpose it to help alleviate any side effects of the shot (i.e. fever, etc). So, I generally wait until I get home and if she has any of these side effects, I give it to her then.

Sometimes she does and sometimes she doesn't. I don't like to give it to her unless she needs it.

Per my pediatrician's advice, I only give tylenol if he seems warm and/or irritable after the shots.
