(I admit up front to possibly being a bit Precious-Last-Born about this)
Got the letter last night about the junior infant vaccinations. There's no question that she's getting them, she's fully vaccinated up to now. But...
Her last lot of vaccinations were abroad. She has various allergies including egg, which caused a bit of a flap about the MMR (to the extent that the GP considered having it done in hospital but instead just sat beside the nurse with a vial of adrenaline). My reading since then has shown that this may have been a bit of an over reaction.
But. The thoughts of DD getting the vaccinations done without me is stressing me out (partly because her sister was completely hysterical at her vaccinations at the same age). DD2 is tiny, and with her allergies I'm probably a bit protective over her.
Can anyone talk me through how the JI vaccinations usually go and put my mind at ease?
(They have offered to let us be there on the day, but I don't know whether that would make it worse, particularly as I likely wouldn't be able to take her home afterwards)
