My HV said that a cold is not serious enough to merit delaying jabs - I would take her. If she has a temp or has been sick then I probably wouldn't. HTH

Brilliant, thank you.

Personally I would delay; a week's delay on the jabs isn't going to make any difference and I don't like to jab a poorly baby. But the official advice is certainly to go ahead unless they have a fever.

I would delay too. If she's feeling miserable I wouldn't want to add to it! She's highly unlikely to come in contact with any of the diseases in the next week anyway

Well, I thought she was better but her nose is running and she is coughing again today.

And she was sick after I fed her just now which isnt like her. I think I will hold off for a week.

Thanks all
