As parents, we all know that after the baby is born, they need to be exposed to various vaccines at every age. And these vaccines can enhance babies' immunity, reduce the likelihood of them getting sick or suffering from major illnesses. There are many precautions to be taken when receiving vaccines. So, what should babies pay attention to after getting vaccinated?
1. It is best not to take a shower within 24 hours after receiving the vaccine, as the needle hole has not fully grown and bacteria are likely to enter and cause infection. Therefore, it is best not to take a shower within 24 hours after receiving the vaccine.
2. On the night after receiving the vaccine, the baby may experience crying, which is a normal phenomenon. At this time, it is necessary to give the baby more warm water to comfort them. Generally, the baby will recover normally the next day.
3. When giving a baby a vaccine, it is best not to let the baby eat on an empty stomach. If the baby receives the vaccine on an empty stomach, it can easily cause hypoglycemia, especially after receiving the polio vaccine. The baby cannot eat for half an hour, so it is best to give the baby something to eat before vaccination.
In general, babies will not have any problems after getting vaccinated, but parents should be aware that if their baby has a mild cold or some fever, they should not receive the vaccine. It is best to wait for the baby's condition to improve before receiving the vaccine. Vaccination during illness can easily cause problems.
