My DSs 3rd jabs are due next week. Is it vitally important to have them on the exact 4 weekly date or can I move the appointment?
If anyone could help, that would be great! [hhmm]

You can move them it just has to be as near to that week as you can. I had to postpone my babies by a week as we were on holiday Smile

You can leave longer between them. Many people choose to delay them or space them out more for a number of reasons. It's not usually a problem.

Ds had his 1st set of jabs at 8 weeks, his second set at 14 weeks and his 3rd set at 11 and 12 months (done in two sections as he had a bad reaction to the first set and they wanted to be careful).

This wasn't choice, just the only times he wasn't on antibiotics or had a temperature, but it wasn't a problem.
