Well for ages dh and i have not felt comfortable in giving dd her 12month vacs. she is now 15months (well she will be on the 20th) and she still hasnt had anything...
She has had all her vacs since birth but this particular time round we just havent felt comfortable giving her the jabs.
On top of all that, everytime we have asked at our gp questions about the vac hing, she says, dotn worry the gov wouldnt advise it if it wasnt safe (much the same as the usual stuff everyone else seems to be getting). At our gps there are teo nurses who give the jabs, the first one sticks to the rules and well gets angry at you if you are more than a week overdue for the vac. The second one is more laid back, but she still sticks to what the gov says word for word...
We have decided to have selective immunisation, and this time round we just arent sure what to give her. Given this we had an appointment with one of the nurses today but DH cancellled it at the last moment.... To be honest i was rather happy that he did cancel as I really cannot stand the gps or the nurses! (our normal gp has left the practice, and we couldnt follow her )
He said the reason why he cancelled was that he wanted to talk to our friends mum who is a gp about it all first; which i think is a good idea, but i am left wondering how long i will be before this actually happens. (DH is the kind of guy that does something, the day it is due, he gets the pressie on the day, and so on!)
Is there a time frame for the vaccinations?
How much does it matter if they are late?
We are so confused and really have no idea where to take this decision!
