Yesterday she got her six month vaccines and last night she had a fever all night it went up to 101 and kept putting cold compress on her forhead and had to put her in her bathtub to try to bring her fever down and also gave her tylenol. my concern is that her cough and stuffy nose got worse last night she would even cry when she coughed is this normal reaction of her shots and now that she s 6 months old can I give her like advil or motrin?
