2.5 year checkup -- shots?

What happens at the 2.5 year well checkup? Do they give shots? What kind of questions did the dr. ask you about your DC's development?

Re: 2.5 year checkup -- shots?

  • DD doesn't have a 2.5 year checkup.  Just 2 years and then 3 years. So I assume there are no shots, or else she would probably have one lol. 
  • My DS doesn't have an appointment until 3 years.  No shots until then.

  • no shot.  Well - DS will have some b/c we are on a delayed schedule.

    The 2.5 yr check is mainly a develpmental screen (autism).

    No 2 1/2 yr. appt. for us either.  We don't go back until 3 yrs.

     Same for us.

  • We only have yearly appointments after 2 years, but there were no shots at either the 2 or the 3 year appointments.

    ditto.

  • Weird. I called our pedi to ask if he needed one and she told us yes. I wonder why. I guess a developmental screen can't hurt anything.

  • Ditto on the 2 then 3 year appt.  RIght now the 18 month checkup is suppose to be used for the M-CHAT autistic screening so I have no clue why you have a 2 1/2 year checkup....hmmm!
  • Did you delay any shots that or did dc get any late.  DD just had her 2 year in dec and they dont need to see her untill 3 years old and no shots until she starts grade school
  • my doc said 2.5 was new and a result of kids exhibiting major delays (I read = autism) between 2-3
