Default Please Help... My baby got her rabies shot and I need some advice

I took my babies to the vet at 3:30 today and they gave them their rabies shot. They are 15 weeks old. Kissy is doing fine but I'm concerned about Natasha. She is restless and a bit shaky for lack of a better term. It seems like she is having a bit of a tremmor periodically. I don't know if it's just the shakes with one a little worse now and then or if it's something more. I called the vets office back around 5:00 but they were closed so I called their cell number. They asked me if she had any swelling around the injection site or in her face and I don't see any. They told me to give her a 1/4tsp of Benadryl so and that she would probably sleep for some time after that to help her get through it. She only weighs a little over a pound so I thought that seemed a bit much so I only gave her a half a mil. of it. Should I give her more? They told me to call them if anything changes. Has anyone ever had this happen? Should I take her to the ER? I have never had a dog behave anything other than normally after a shot so I'm shook up right now. Am I just a nervous mom overreacting?
