Heaven - the short answer is no. The doctor needs to source them and order them separately. This is work for them and if they cant be bothered they wont.
You will need to hunt down a doctor in your area who will give them separately.
PM your suburb and city, I will have a chat to my doctor and see if he knows a doctor there or where your doctor can get the vax from (im in Perth) Charlotte is going in next week for her tetanus injection.
Thanks Alexis. I'll PM you.
I'd love for them to split up hexa again.
For bfing mummies, something I learnt from a canadian study. If YOU get the whooping cough booster, 10 days later the antibodies for pertussis are in your milk. This can offer the baby passive protection from whooping cough. Its not the same as making their own, but your antibodies will fight off any infection while their body makes their own. The amount of antibodies does start to decline after 4 days, but it did cover them from 10do to 2mo in the studies. Might buy you some time.
