8 week old with cold - should she get her jabs this week?

DD is due to get her first immunisations on Thursday but she's quite coldy. She's still feeding alright, not as much as usual but still enough, but she is throwing up (she's never usually sicky) milk mixed with lots of snotty goo (sorry TMI). She cries a lot when she's awake and just wants cuddling and isn't sleeping too well either. Should I postpone her jabs til she's got over this cold or will it not make much difference?

Ask HV, but I think they'll say delay it. Hope she feels better soon. Btw my DD didn't get her first round of imos until 12 weeks so don't think it matters too much if it's a bit late.

definitely delay until a few days after she is fully well

Ok, thank you, I'll ring up and cancel the appointment in the morning!! I wasn't sure how important it was for her to have them bang on 8 weeks but I wasn't looking forward to taking her
