Pre school booster immunisations

4 replies

My son has an appointment for his pre school booster jabs on Tuesday afternoon (the 3 year 4 months ones). A couple of months late but..
Anyway this week the cold that goes round at this time of year has graced our house with its presence, we all have it.
Ds doesn't seem too bad, a slight cough and runny nose, no temperature (I've checked). He seems happy enough in himself.
Is he fine to have his jabs with a bit of a cold or should I phone the doctors first thing Monday morning and rearrange? Or wait and see how he is between now and Monday and judge from there?
Thanks.

Ring them on Tuesday morning and let the nurse know how he is - s/he will be able to advise whether to bring him in or not.

If no temp, I’d expect them to go ahead.

Unless he has a temperature the vaccine is ok to have

Practice nurse here- if he's no temp I'd go ahead. We never postpone for coughs and colds, children would never get done.

Thanks everyone. I'll check his temperature in the morning and make sure he's okay. It's more just a runny nose and a cough anyway.
