Lo has 12 month vaccinations today - but has had a cold for 3 days.

general consensus online is that this is ok as long as they don't have a fever.

LO has normal temperature but a very runny stuffy nose.

I rang the surgery just to check and they advised NOT to come for it and re-arrange, but they dont have any appointments until next week.

LO starts nursery next week so would rather they are done now to get any side effects out of the way - have heard they can't crawl for a few days and may be a bit under the weather.

Rang the HV and was a bit useless - said go to the appointment anyway and they can check temperature.

I know this nurse who does the vaccinations is quite blasé and will just do it regardless..

really worried now - please help - i don't want to add to LO's suffering this week but also think its important we get it done now.

Mine had a cold when he got his done, no particular effects afterwards that I noticed. Once they start Nursery they will have a permanent cold for at least 6 months so I’d just do it now!
