I took ds3 for his first shot today. He is 4 months old exactly. I did not want them earlier as I felt his system was not mature enough to cope. I still have my worries now. The nurse was a bit taken aback as to why he was so old and having only his first one and made comments about"we'd better get started then" and reminded me to bring him back in a month. I plan to have the next one when he is around 6 months and the third when he is around 9 months. Am I wrong in this? Is it likely to cause problems spacing them apart so much? I did not want to discuss any of this with the nurse as I did not feel I would get anything other than the standard line.
Oh, and have sympathy for me this weekend as I also had ds2 pre-school booster today. I crazily thought it made more sense getting it all over and done with in one go, but now am dreading them both being poorly at the same time!
