DS2 (aged 4 months) is due to have his 2nd lot of injections this morning (for diptheria etc) - he has no temperature but is slight cold/cough - should i delay the jab?

because the jabs can make baby feel a bit out of sorts, sometimes the nurse will tell you to wait til the cold is away as the combination can make them feel really rough

my dd2 is due her mmr, i even just have to whisper 'mmr' and she gets a cold, its sods law!

i think i should leave it - i just worry about him getting whooping cough or something like that..we go on holiday to tenerife on monday - not that that should make any difference should it?

you could always take him and see what the nurse says, i think i would

can't imagine that it would make a difference to your holiday - ask the nurse - you're right to leave it, they need to be 100% to have their jabs
