Vaccine Allergies
Filed in archive Allergy to Drugs by ruth on September 11, 2008
With my first-born, it never even occurred to me to worry about allergic reactions to vaccines. Allergies was something that happened to other people, not us. Well, nothing untoward happened with him, but a few months later, when he started solids, that's when allergies crept into our sphere of reality. Food allergies, and later allergies to insect stings, pollen, dust mites, as well as asthma, became a big topic in our household.
This time around, with my second child, I think I know too much to relax. Even when experts say that allergic reactions to vaccines are extremely rare, I can't help getting tense. It's been two days, and so far, so good. No signs, no symptoms of allergies. She's a bit fussy, sure, but I think that's the vaccine working and not an allergic reaction.
I suppose I can relax now. Or maybe tomorrow.
