Make shots easier on your child

For babies and younger children Distract and comfort your child by cuddling, singing, or talking softly. Smile and make eye contact with your child. Let your child know that everything is ok. Comfort your child with a favorite toy or book. A blanket that smells familiar will help your child feel more comfortable. Hold your child firmly on your lap, whenever possible. Once your child has received all of the shots, be especially supportive. Hold and cuddle your child. A soothing voice, combined with praise and hugs will help reassure the child that everything is okay. Additionally, babies can be soothed through swaddling, skin-to-skin contact, and breastfeeding. If older than 6 months, babies can also be given a sweet beverage.
