Is it possible for a baby to be sick after her immunization?

It's quite common...: For infants and toddlers to develop fever after having received their immunizations, and they may also show reactions at the site of the injections. Likewise, pts can manifest acute hypersensitivity reactions to vaccines or their components. Non-febrile constitutional symptoms would be rare/unusual. If you have concerns about your child after being immunized, you should contact your doctor.

Vaccinations: Yes. Of course. The vaccinations cause a revving up of the immune system to make the appropriate antibodies to prevent deadly illness later.
