Hi just looking for a little advice.
Dd is booked in for 12 week jabs on Monday and temperature predicted here is 38 degrees!

  1. I want to avoid taking her out in that kind of temperature and don't drive so means walking
  2. Thinking it maybe difficult to monitor any fever etc as it's going to be so hot
  3. Hot weather is already making her miserable and feel terrible to add to that

What would you do? Am I just being overly paranoid?

Just postpone the jabs.

Well how long is the walk to the drs? So realistically how long will they be outside for? I also assume you have a suitable pushchair with a hood etc?

TBH, there are always reasons to postpone and if you do it now, you might have a more pressing reason to do it the next time, or the time after that etc.

Just do it and get it over with.
