is it possible on the nhs to alter your lo's vaccination schedule?

[chillichill]

my dd is 14 weeks and due for her 2nd Round of jabs. she did not have a terrible reaction to the 1st lot but there are things that happened after that may just be coincide (as hv said) or may not. she seemed to develop a sensitivity to dairy in my bm that did not seem to trouble her before the jab but after she had bouts of colic type crying till I cut out dairy. she also had a lot of just fussy screaming crying which she had not done before the jab. true, the fussiness is most likely developmental but I had never heard her scream like that until after the jab.
I do want to continue immunizing her since we travel a lot and plan to move back to the states eventuality but I would rather space it out.
I would ideally like to give her single doses at a time but I understand that is unlikely on the nhs so is it possible privately? and how do you find docs to do it (im in Edinburgh)
alternatively, I would get her the triple jab first the the menC a few weeks later, iyswim.
any advice much appreciated.

Go and talk to your gp. The schedule is a guide and vaccinations are not compulsory.

If your child had a reaction then the gp should know. It may well affect the further vaccinations he is prepared to recommend.
Adverse reaction is important to notice and record and some children cannot have vaccines if they react badly.

My dd hasn't had any yet and she is 8. All with her gps approval

I delayed some of DD1s vaccines, and in particular was not keen on her having 2 at once.

the practice nurse at the time was thrilled that I was bothering at all (very low take-up where I lived then), and didn't bat an eyelid.

she did recommend that I give the mmr sooner rather than later due to a local measles epidemic.

I feel the sensitivity to dairy and the.fussiness is connected but nurse and hv looked at me like I was nuts when I suggested it. she also screamed uncontrollabley for an hour after until we gave her calpol. I know that's normal but I don't want to put her through it again if I don't have to.
in general, I feel 5 or 6 diseases at once is just too much for their little bodies and would rather give less and spread it out. ill speak to gp but worry they will just yet to convince me its all normal and I'm being a paranoid first time mum. if I insist, do they have to allow me to set my own schedule?

charlotte- did you find your dd had less of a reaction by spreading it out?

they can't insist
if you get lots of grief from them, consider changing gp
my gp sends a reminder when jabs are due, but you make your own appointment. they don't hound you if you don't respond.

it's impossible to say. she did have a bad reaction to her first jabs, but within the scheme of normal (hot, very screamy), which is why i spaced out the others. she was fine, but who's to say she wouldn't have been fine anyway?

Charlotte- thanks for reply. sounds like your dd had similar reaction as mine and you had a similar instinct as mine. ill phone Monday to re-schedule for single jab rather than 2 at once and hope my dd fairs better with it as yours did.
