Hi, DS is due to get his MMR booster tomorrow, he is 3 and 4 months. His first vaccine was delayed by 5 months. Does anyone know should the booster also be delayed by the same amount of time? I asked the receptionist but she was very vague.
TIA

they can have it when they are supposed to. There needs to be at least 3 months between doses

Dd had her first dose at 2 years 1 month (a week after her autism diagnosis) and had her booster at the normal time with no problems. Pretty sure the GP would have said if it was a problem as she gave dd both doses.
