Question

Accepted Answer

hi both vaccine are fine for rotavirus vaccination.
you can give it.
some rashes loose motions vomitting may happen as side effects in both.
it should be mild and should improve in 24 to 48 hours.
if bottle feeding maintain sterility as its a common source of infection too

Accepted Answer

Firstly 
This loose is not bcz of rotavirus vaccine  
It may be due to stomach infection or feed indigestion 
If baby is passing adequate urine ie minimum 6-8 times per day 
 Then no need to worry for motion ( once in 7 days or  15 times per day-  both conditions normal)  
Don't give so much importance to motion unless blood in motion or bad smelling motion 
Keep ur baby well hydrated 
Continue to give Breast milk 
Don't give water and other food items at this age 
Wait for some more days 
Everything will be alright 
If blood in stool or less urine output then consult with nearest pediatrician
