How long to delay MMR for?

DD will be vax'd at school age.

thanks ladies Seeing as she isn't very high risk I think I'll hold off at least until she is 2, if she does happen to start going to daycare then I might rethink but for the moment I think she should be pretty safe. Hopefully I haven't jinxed her now..lol

Both my boys had MMR at 12mths with no problems. 3 needles didnt bother them. but it is up to you.

dont let them hassle you

I just wanted to come back to this thread as new information has come to my attention. My main reason for giving my son the MMR vax was the risk of infertility from mumps. I just looked this up again based on the discussion in the compulsary vax thread and found that the risk of infertility in boys only occurs if they have the mumps AFTER puberty. I will do some more research now, but based on that information I think I will delay the MMR vax for a lot longer next time- perhaps till school age or even around 10 years old.
