• Always ask your healthcare provider if you have any questions or would like more information. • Your provider might ask you to hold your baby in a certain way to steady the arm or the leg where the shot will be given. These techniques are designed to keep children still without holding them down or frightening them. • Many healthcare providers often advise keeping a child in the hospital under observation for about 15 to 20 minutes after getting vaccines to ensure immediate medical attention in the unlikely event of an allergic reaction or in case the child becomes dizzy or faints. • Ensure that all vaccinations are noted on your baby’s vaccination record card. 19
