Immmunization

MegB - I dont think it will effect it at all.

Shame man hope baba gets better asap

Hi Ladies

I took my 12 week old for her vaccinations on Friday morning but later in the afternoon she was hysterical so i took her to the pead and found out she had an ear infection. The doc prescribed antibiotics.

How does this affect the vaccinations?

Its no problem, lots of people even postpone the first vacs till baby is a bit older. You shouldn't go for vacs earlier than scheduled, but later is not a problem. The first set of vacs (6 weeks, 10 weeks, 14 weeks) have to be at least 4 weeks apart, so you can't go for them early, but if they are more than 4 weeks apart it doesn't create a problem at all.

I often forgot to take my kids and was almost always late for my vacs. The sister just helped me space it out to make sure that we had done all the neccessary vacs by 18 months.

That reminds me, Claudia is due for her 9 month shot...

Yes it is ok.

Yes it's fine. A couple of days - even weeks either way is fine. They will often postpone vaccinations a few days if babies are sick.

Hi ladies...

My LO was due for her 10 week immunization today, but now my partner had to cancel due to work related reasons, is it okay to postpone the appointment to Monday?! I am really worried that this is not okay, please any help will be appreciated.

Thanks
