Vaccines

If you do selective/delayed vaccinating or have an alternative schedule, would you please share it?

 

No debates please! :001_smile:

 

OK, I came up with this schedule:

DTap @ 2, 4, 6, 13 months (and booster after age 4)

Hib, PC @ 3, 5, 7 ,15 months

No Rotavirus, no flu-shot, no HPV

HepB and Polio after 2 years

I haven't decided on MMR, but if I do it then at 12 or 18 months

Undecided on Varicella

 

I *think* I can live with this...

Well, we selectively vaccinate inasmuch as we politely decline what I consider to be economic vaccines (chicken pox), or ones that need a whole generation on the market before I can form an opinion on them one way or another (HPV).

 

Otherwise, we're on schedule, though have simply delayed a shot by a couple weeks here or there so as not to inundate a wee person with them.

 

But selection / schedule is a highly personal thing. What we feel is appropriate for our lifestyle - husband is a paramedic, family travels all over the world, etc - doesn't apply to others with different exposure risks, health status, etc.
