Immunization

Immunization or Vaccination as it is generally known to people is one major things to be taken care of regarding the baby’s development.

Generally the confusion is whether to opt for Vaccinations that cause Pain or the Painless category. While it is believed that on administering the baby with vaccines that cause pain, baby may get fever and may experience pain for close to 24hours or so and while the painless ones as the name indicates doesn’t inflict any pain and may or may not result in fever which if any will be there for a few hours.

The myth that surrounds the Vaccinations is that if the baby is administered the Pain inducing one, then the vaccine tends to boost its immunity however there is no actual fact to prove the same.

When I consulted U’s paediatrician regarding the same, he told me that in foreign countries there is no concept of Pain or Painless ones and that all kids are administered Painless ones. He also asked me to ponder over the fact that if Painless ones were harmful, why doctors abroad would administer those vaccinations?

Have tried to bust the myth associated with vaccines with this post.

P.S so far all vaccines given to baby U are Painless ones
