Are There Painless Vaccines Available For A Child?

Hi Doctor, i have been blessed with a baby girl and she is 70 days now. its time for her 2nd month vaccination(DPT, HIB, OPV & IPV). most of my friend suggest me to opt for painless vaccine for the baby at a little extra cost. but i wonder how a vaccine can become painless if the same drug is used for the baby everywhere. Please give me an idea on this.
