DS is 3 and we've been rather slack on it too be honest. He had the Measels one about a year ago. He goes to nursery (attached to primary) in September. Need to organise a jab for him. Should we go for mumps of rubella. We will probably get whichever one he doesn't get now in about 6 months.
I seem to recall hearing that mumps is only serious if a boy gets it in his teenage years. Is this true? Can't remember where I heard it so might not be true.
BTW, this thread is not being created for the pupose of the MMR debate in general. We are not getting a combined jab. So I would appreciate if those who are inclined to suggest it could please try to refrain.

Single MMR jab people, what order did you give the jabs in?
