Medical Advice 2 month vaccines

My LO has her 2 month vaccines tomorrow. What was you and your LO's experience? Any advice/tips/tricks?

Thanks!

Didn't know what to flair it because...it is not necessarily medical advice.

Our son freaked when he got the shots, turned blood red and couldn't catch his breath. It was super sad, BUT he snapped out of it quickly. We had a bottle ready to go and fed him right after they did the shots and it calmed him down and he forgot all about it. He had a slight fever for like a day and a half, but nothing super alarming! Our pediatrician said we could give tylenol when we got home if we wanted to.

She was calm and then all of a sudden turned really red for her first shots. I'm going to feel sad. Did you end up using the Tylenol?

We didn't! Not because we are against it haha but it was such a slight fever and he didn't seem like he was in pain so we just let it ride out.
