We've recently moved to New Zealand, and DD is due to have her MMR any day now.
DS had the single jabs in the UK a few years ago, and we assumed that we'd do the same thing for any subsequent DCs. There isn't a single jab option in New Zealand though so here it's either the MMR or nothing.
The other option is to have the singles when we return to the UK for visits, but then again we'd only be returning for 2-3 weeks at a time, so the singles would be staggered over the period of several years.
Does anyone know if there are any benefits of leaving the MMR until later, or could they point me to any research? Would it be possible to leave it until she's 2 or even 3?
