    Ok. Thanks.

    the nurse said the rotovirus needs to be completed between 12 & 32 weeks of age.

    i'm happy to revisit the schedule. We were going to see how he goes with his first shot tomorrow. I'm
    not looking forward to it. DH is getting a d/t/p booster as well, so I'm expecting lots of sookiness.

    Cassius - what ages have you done different shots?

    Re rotavirus, my understanding is that exclusive breastfeeding offers better protection than the vax. Also, a lot of babies seem to react like HotI's and some may go on to have continuing issues with guts after the vax.

    I'll do more reading on it. We've changed the schedule to 1 vax every 2 weeks.

    I didnt realise that sookiness = non stop screaming but I should have. Poor mite. We'll get through it.

    LnB, would you consider reporting this as a reaction (to the nurse/doc)? To be honest, it seems quite out of the ordinary to me.
