After the child is born, they will be vaccinated, and different vaccines will be administered every month to prevent many diseases. But many mothers don't know what to prepare before their children get vaccinated for the first time. In fact, getting vaccinated for children only requires taking some essential items. Let's learn more about it with the editor below. What do children need to bring for vaccination?
What do children need to bring for vaccination
1. Don't forget to bring your vaccination certificate in this notebook. The staff at the epidemic prevention station need to register on this notebook. If some vaccines are not administered, it will affect children's enrollment in the future.
2. Drink plenty of water after the injection, so don't forget to bring water.
3. Small blanket, bring a small blanket in winter, after all, the baby is still young. If it feels a bit cold after getting vaccinated, then use a cup to wrap it over the baby. This is suitable for younger babies. In summer, bring a thinner scarf. If the air conditioning at the epidemic prevention station is too cold, holding the child and wearing a scarf can prevent them from being blown by the air conditioning.
4. Clothes and jackets. When going home after getting vaccinated, some babies may feel a little cold, so mothers can wear jackets with their babies. Especially in the three seasons of spring, autumn, and winter.
5. Bottles and milk, for younger babies, mothers must remember to bring these things because after getting vaccinated, they need to stay at the epidemic prevention station for half an hour. If the child is hungry, the mother can make milk for the child to eat.
6. If you have a diaper and still need to wear it, your mom must bring this. After all, getting vaccinated requires staying at the epidemic prevention station for a relatively long period of time. If the child suddenly defecates, the mother can immediately replace it for the child.
What should I do if my baby has a fever after getting vaccinated
After receiving the vaccination, children should rest for 15 to 30 minutes at the vaccination site. If they experience high fever or other vaccination reactions after vaccination, they should seek medical attention promptly.
The reactions to vaccination are common on the day or the second day of vaccination, mostly low-grade fever, and generally do not require treatment. When the baby's body temperature does not exceed 38.5 ℃, it is generally not urgent to take medication to cool down.
A baby's body temperature between 36.5 and 37.5 ℃ is normal. A temperature between 37.6 and 38.5 ℃ is considered low-grade fever. Drink plenty of water, avoid wearing too many clothes, and take some traditional Chinese medicine to clear heat and detoxify. But if it's only below 38.5 ℃, it's best not to take antipyretic medicine. Taking antipyretic medicine too early can affect the formation of the child's immune system.
Children usually start to lose their immunity from the mother's body from 5 to 6 months old, and their own immunity begins to form. If a fever occurs at this time and is handled properly, it can enhance immunity once.
The above has provided a comprehensive answer on what children need to bring for vaccination. Mainly bring the green book for vaccination, and you can choose what else is suitable for yourself. Sometimes children may have adverse reactions when getting vaccinated, which is fever. If fever occurs, it is necessary to observe physical fever reduction. If fever persists, seek medical attention as soon as possible.
