Hi raeka,

Normally after taking MMR, the temp does not become high immediately, normally it is at night or evening....Tht time I brought my son to polyclinic for the MMR jab, and the nurse there gave us a bottle of paracetamol for stand by

If your son does hv fever, besides giving him the med, you also hv to sponge him and keep him hydrated

One of my colleague told me this method if want to prevent bb hvg high fever after jab is to give barley water the day before the jab, tht time before the MMR I forgot to boil some.....but for his other jabs I did and he got no fever

Hi Raeka,

For mine daughter, her fever come one week after the jab. I brought her to the PD and she mentioned that MMR - fever might come 7 to 10 days after the jad if not immediately.

Another way is to give Barley like Phoebii mentioned, and also a dose of the paracetamol once after the injection.

Which clinic are you bringing your child for the jab?

This morning bring my boy to have the MMR Jab.
hopefully it will turn out well.
He didn't like barley so i only gave him drink gripe water before he went for JAB.
I got gave him paracetamol after his lunch.

So far no fever yet but rashes after the JAb very fast.

If in the next 5days, he didn't have fever is it consider safe?

Thank you all. (^^,)

hi, when should babies take their MMR jab?

as for barley, do we use the 'western barley' or the china barley? i heard that one type is more 'cool' than the other....

For MMR jab, normally bbs shd take when they r 15mths...but if not feeling well, might drag....till bb is feeling better

As for barley, buy the china barley...cos' normal barley too cooling

My girl just took her MMR jab on 14th night (last Wed).
Her fever starts on Sat. Quite a bad one... Even vomit 1x.
Now after the fever, she has rashes (red spots on her body).
Just checked with doc - doc says its normal after the jab too leh...
Stressed...

Past few jabs, no problem...
