    Reaction to MMR

    Has anyones toddler ever have a reaction to the MMR ?

    Kimberley had hers on Monday and for the last 3 days she has had a small rash on her tummy & back.
    I was wonder how long it may last as i threw the information we got at the time away as she has always been okay in the past.

    The DS of our friends had spots appear a week after his MMR. It lasted a couple of days and he was fine. I hope Kimberley is better soon, I'm sure she will be.

    Well.. Jesse was given the MMR by mistake at his 4 months needles (thats another story), but we were warned that it is common to get a small rash afterwards. If you are at all worried, just take her to your GP, but as far as i was informed it is a common reaction.

    its possible to get a measles like rash after MMR, if you're worried though get it checked by your GP.
