One thing I forgot to mention... If you vaccinate your kids, you need to be really careful if they are given a live virus vaccine. Rotavirus was fun - that was two weeks in gloves to change dirty nappies, and I still caught it from Sam once. MMR was also stressful, but we coped with nobody getting sick. The chicken pox vax - we skipped that and will worry about it when Sam's older if he doesn't manage to catch them.

Immune suppressants are scary, but they are also life-changing.
