    Delaying immunisation

    We are wanting to delay our daughter's immunisations. So for those of you who did I have a few questions.

    1) How long did you delay them for?
    2) Did you have all the immunisations for that month then or did you space the separate ones out?
    3) Did you split some of the multiple vaccines and request separate vaccines? e.g. Hep B, Hib etc
    4) What vaccines were you able to get separate?
    5) Where did you get your child immunised?
    6) Did you get much flak from the health professionals?

    I'd appreciate any responses.

    I chose not to continue with vaccinations for my then 6mo and 4yo (and I wont be getting the cervical cancer one for my girls either). I know Schmickers has a delayed vacciantion program that they are following and he is quite happy to share it. They do have to all be spaced out as they would on the *normal* schedule. I didn't cop any flak for it at all, even though I was prepared for it.
