hello
My son is nearly 13 months old, he has not had MMR yet partly because I was scared but mostly because I had an egg allergy as a child, my brother still does have (quite strong allergy). We could not have MMR as it is cultured on chicken eggs. We both therefore contracted measles, mumps etc!
We are yet to check whether my son is allergic because I never cook with eggs so never have any in the house. We will be doing a gradual approach, testing cooked egg on his skin first, then something with egg in it, then if all well some omelette or something.
But we go on hol to Wales a week Friday, and there Has just been an outbreak confirmed in the county we are visiting (10 cases). What would you do? Cancel? Rush testing egg allergy over weekend and then get vaccinated a couple of days before going? Or just go and stop worrying about it?
Oh who'd be a parent? So worrying. Thanks for reading
