Can I get the vaccination in the afternoon?

It is very important to vaccinate your baby because the baby has just come into the world and has low resistance to the external environment and is very susceptible to viruses, which can lead to some diseases. Vaccinations can effectively improve the baby's physique, or disinfect and sterilize, etc. However, people usually get vaccinations in the morning. So can they get vaccinations in the afternoon? Let's introduce it in detail below.

Your baby can be vaccinated in the afternoon. There is no distinction between morning and afternoon vaccination times as long as the baby is in good health. The local maternal and child hospital will notify you in advance when to get the vaccination, so you just need to take your baby to get the vaccination on time.

If your baby has a cold, diarrhea, fever, etc. within a week before vaccination, it is not suitable for vaccination. You should make this clear to the doctor. Let your baby rest early the day before vaccination.

Precautions

After your baby has received a vaccination, you must observe him/her for half an hour before leaving. Parents should pay attention to letting their babies drink more water, pay attention to whether they have fever, and whether there are redness, swelling, or nodules at the injection site.

What should I pay attention to after my baby gets vaccinated?

1. Take adequate rest

Do not do strenuous exercise after vaccination. Proper rest is conducive to the formation of antibodies.

2. In terms of diet

Some inappropriate practices are popular among the people, such as feeding babies "irritating foods" such as small fish, shrimp or coriander, in the hope that the vaccines will "work" out and achieve therapeutic effects. Other parents advocate "dietary restrictions", saying their children cannot eat this or that, for fear that it will interfere with the effectiveness of the vaccination. But it is best not to eat spicy food and not to add other burdens to the baby's stomach.

3. Don’t take a shower

Don't take a shower on the day after vaccination to be careful of infection.

4. Don’t panic if you experience minor adverse reactions

Some babies may experience mild adverse reactions such as nausea, vomiting, and dizziness after vaccination. If the symptoms are not serious, you can observe them first and don't worry. If the symptoms are more serious, you should go to the hospital for a doctor's diagnosis.
