vaccination question

[Chumps]

If you are late with a vaccination (eg 10 days after a child turned 4 months), then should you wait the extra 10 day period after the child turns 6 months before getting the next scheduled vacc's? Or is it ok to get the vaccinatinations at the time the child turns 6 (calander) months? The reason I am asking is that a Dr refused to give my DD vacc's because I was a week early (was going by birth weeks, not calander months :rolleyes:), then she got sick, so I put it off a bit, and ended up getting them just over a week later than I should have, and now a different Dr has put the next due date back as the 6 months (by the calander).

I know it doesn't matter that vacc's are given a bit later than schedulled, but I guess what I am wanting to know is - does it really matter if the vacc's are administered a little closer than they should be according to the vacc schedule?

I hope this makes some sense :laughing:

Hey friend ;)

Shouldn't matter. We did a delayed programme with Will and did his last 4mth vax and his first 6mth vax 6 weeks apart, our GP was fine with it.

As long as each vax is 20 days apart all is fine :)
