8 weeks or 2 months? Baby vaccinations

1 reply

This might be a really stupid question, but I was wondering if I should have the first lot of jabs scheduled at 8 weeks or exactly at 2 calendar months. My baby was born on October 16 and my GP scheduled the 8 week check up on December 12. There is 5 days difference to my baby reaching 2 months. Should I reschedule the check up to December 17 or from your experience it makes no difference. I am not really sure if she can even take paracetamol after the jabs when she is technically less than 2 months old. She also had a bit of weight issues and has been catching up on weight. From your experience, does it make any difference to have the jabs at 8 weeks + 1 day or at exactly 2 months?

Many thanks and sorry if this has been asked before.

They're due at 8 weeks, not 2 months so I'd just get them done on the date you were given
