Vaccines spaced apart

[L0ngg0ne]

24+5 weeks pregnant, first time mum and thinking about options regarding this whole vaccine thing.

Did any parents have their child(ren)'s vaccines spaced apart?

Was this an easy process? Did it take much convincing the doctors/midwives/nurses, or did you have to put up a bit of a fight?

What were your reasons for deciding to have them spaced apart, and [how] do you feel this spacing apart benefitted your child?

Also, were there any particular vaccines you decided against, and for what reason?

I know I've asked a lot of questions, but I'd love to hear your thoughts and stories.

I understand that this is quite a touchy/personal subject, so please only answer the questions you're comfortable with answering.

Thank you.
