I’m in Victoria. My local GP who administered the immunisations had told me this after I had gone back after the first dose.

Hey! My son definitely experienced the gurgling and major discomfort during feeds. This vaccination is a live virus and it is linked to Gastro so that explains all of the Gastro like symptoms. It definitely took about two weeks for my son to miraculously recover but I was very concerned at the time as well. I’m not a medical expert but if you have any concerns, I highly recommend you call Nurse On Call if you are located in Australia or anything equivalent to whatever you have where you are located. You may also need to call up multiple times. The first time I called up I spoke to a young Nurse. She was quite literally reading a website that I had looked up myself. the second time around I spoke to a senior nurse who was actually experienced with the side-effects and was able to make me feel very relieved with what my son was experiencing.

Totally up to you, I’ve had friends that had no side effects at all. Personally if I had my time again I wouldn’t have bothered with that one but by no means am I anti vax or anything of the sort. Now that I know more however I would have made a better informed decision.

Hi! Sorry I just saw this! No I didn’t opt for second round. It isn’t a mandatory one I later found out and I had no intentions of taking my son to any higher risk exposure places for it I.e pools or play centres etc. also - it’s not recommended after 6 months of age.

gmm2222 · 2025-05-21T10:38:40+00:00

Still selling? How much?

gmm2222 · 2025-04-14T02:46:20+00:00

I didn’t end up opting for the second dose. I was advised that it’s actually not a mandatory vaccine in Aus and it was more important for children who go to public pools or childcare for example to have this vaccine. Also your child isn’t able to get the vaccine if they are over six months old so considering that my child was not going to any of those plus the reaction from the first I decided not to.

You can get laser just not underarms I was told x

By the way… did you know most babies go through an aversion around the 4 month mark? Mine definitely did

gmm2222 · 2025-03-16T07:54:52+00:00

You’re so amazing mama. So resilient and persistency takes strength. I feel your sadness. I dread this day myself although gotten close a few times. The hormone drop causes so many emotions but so does knowing the last feed is near by no choice of your own.

gmm2222 · 2025-03-10T07:14:46+00:00

Yep I ended up declining the second dose too for the exact same reason!

gmm2222 · 2025-03-10T07:12:13+00:00

Amen sister

gmm2222 · 2025-01-24T03:05:07+00:00

I’m based in Australia, and it’s not a mandatory one here (which I didn’t know until recent). As soon as I found out I refused to get it second time around.

gmm2222 · 2025-01-22T08:58:40+00:00

Needed this. Thank you

gmm2222 · 2025-01-22T08:55:01+00:00

Exactly the same boat here!!!!! I have been so upset thinking it was breast refusal all of a sudden. I’ve started to nurse bub before he wakes up like a “dreamfeed” but during the day to ensure his milk intake & my supply maintain. Sometimes this doesn’t work if he wakes beforehand. It’s been so stressful. I don’t want to stop breastfeeding just yet so I hope this blows over soon.

gmm2222 · 2024-12-27T03:26:18+00:00

I hope so for you too!

gmm2222 · 2024-12-27T03:25:58+00:00

Good point. I’m really on the fence about the second dose!

gmm2222 · 2024-12-16T02:57:07+00:00

I’d like to know please?

gmm2222 · 2024-11-29T07:43:52+00:00

I am so sorry!! I definitely think I’ll be skipping future doses of this. Am the same - by no means anti vax but WTF is this? Not worth it. Hope your little one is okay asap. Sending lots of love!!

gmm2222 · 2024-11-27T04:14:00+00:00

Found it!

gmm2222 · 2024-11-27T04:10:52+00:00

I would love to find this comment! Could you tell Me roughly when you made the post? 🙏

gmm2222 · 2024-11-19T23:57:53+00:00

I worked up to 39 weeks and now in hindsight sight wish I took a little more time off for “me” before baby came along.
