8 weeks immunization

Anyone already taken their babies for the 8 weeks injections yet? Am supposed to take my baby next week and am terrified of them coz they are so many and the risk of a fever is high. Tell me how I can handle it coz am loosing my mind.

My kids' Dr gives them a dose of Tylenol before administering any shots. Then Im told to give them a warm bath about 4-6 hrs later (unless sleeping) and kick their legs about to keep them from tightening up if they do. Then give another dose of Tylenol until its been 24hrs.

  My experience between my own children and the babies I've cared for over the years is that with the 2 month vaccines most babies won't get fevers from them. One thing I've always done is give my children tylenol right after and keep it up for 24 hours after. Even though mine don't get fevers it still seems like they hurt.
