Thanks for the info, yes could be side effects :( will give him a few more days to see if there is any improvement, he is still feeding well, seems happy enough and sleeping as normal. Its hard to know sometimes if the nappy contents is ok or not as he has breast milk during the day and night time formula.

http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/pubs/vis/downloads/vis-rotavirus.pdf Rotavirus vaccine is a live human vaccine. Unfortunately this is a side-effect. The above website indicates what is a normal side-effect. Unfortunately your LO looks like he's coped it. It should resolve within a week of the vaccination.

Is the rotavirus vaccine a live virus? If it is then what your DS is suffering from is a very mild dose of rotavirus to enable him to develop a tolerance so he won't get it again. UNfortunately every child is different :( Poor little man.
