Ds, 1yo, has had 2 stinking colds/ bad coughs in two weeks and is still suffering bad. He is due to get his hib and men c booster on Monday. Will they let him get it (he hasn't had a temperature yet)? I have no probs with him having the injections but worried about the knocking his immune system is taking atm. Would you put it off yourself if they do let him have it?

If he has no temperature, they will give it to him if you ar eokay with that. Make sure he hasn't had any calpol before the injection as that will mask any temp and get teh nurse to check his temp.
They might offer to delay it if you are unduly worried.

cheers mmt.

decided would't do him any harm putting it off a wk or 2. More for my own sanity. He hasn't slept properly in weeks without the injections
