| help! whining when picked up? Hey all! I have a few questions. First of all I took Benny in to the vet this morning to get his 4 month boosters. He did very well but he's been kind of out of it since. He was cuddling with me for awhile but now he seems to just wanna go lay by himself. And he's whining whenever I try to pick him up like its hurting him? Is this normal post vaccination behavior or is it something more? He whines and looks really freaked out! Also the first vet I went to had him lined up for another set of boosters in a month but this vet said it was overkill.. What do you guys think? Is he really safe now? Should I worry about any more? Thanks for any help I just don't know what's wrong with him right now

♥My Lil' Monkey Girl♥ Donating Member | You should be fine your baby is probably just sore from the shot. My little one was like that first wants to cuddle then they want to lay by themselves and looks lethargic and seems distant. And will whine, yelp hollar or scream when picked up....sounds normal to me. My vet also told us that they should go about 3-4 weeks in between their shots. But it does depend on your vets practice. They will know what is best for your baby. Hope this helps. Oh and if you have baby asprin (Only baby/childrens LOW dose asprin 81mg you can get this at walgreens stores.) Give that to your baby and it will help thats what my vet had us give ours and it seemed to help. Give only 1/2 of the pill every 8 hours. Quote:

♥My Lil' Monkey Girl♥ Donating Member | well it helps if they start to go lethargic...... sometimes if they began to go lethargic they can become hypoglycemic. But it doesnt do anything for the shot it self.

| I'm sure the shot point is just sensitive. If he keeps crying though I'd call the vet.

| My Bella was the same way with her 4 month shots this week. She is fine now but a little worried. My four children never had this reaction to shot. |
