Hi, my dd is due for her MMR anytime now.... she has a wind/abdominal pain problem for 5 months... a few people have suggested not to have the MMR until this stomach trouble eases as the MMR can make it worse. not really getting a straight answer out of the doc, what do you guys think. btw, she will have the mmr, its just a question of when. tia.

how old is she?

personally I'd wait till at least eighteen months old before MMR (although I did sepvax)

and no, I wouldn't do it whilst she has tummy troubles

she's 12.5mths. Thing is, because I have no diagnosis as such, doc aint taking me seriously... it was a cranial osteopath that said to avoid it for the time being as it can inflame stomach lining.. I'm not all that knowledgeable.... Also, the other side of the argument is that if not vaccinated, at risk of m, m or r.... are these diseases more prevelant in the winter or is that a myth?
