Don't they make or use those little plastic bubbles with air holes that you tape over the immunization site? I remember having those when I was a kid to keep clothing off the site and to serve as a reminder to not scratch and not allow bath water on it. It seemed to solve the problem at that time. Why not now? But then, I was the youngest, so I don't know what families with small babies did.
