Babies: 9 - 12 Months

lurking...9 mo appt question

Do they get shots at their 9 month appt? I was just leaving our pedi and scheduling our 9 month appt and I asked the nurse and she said yes. I didn't think so, so I asked again and she said yes again. I think she is wrong because I went to the cdc site and it says 2, 4, 6, 12....

Was she just confused? or am I missing something?

  • LO had 2 shots...flu shot and a vaccine he missed at 4 months.  Usually at the 9 month appointment, there are no vaccines given.

  • My LO just had her first flu shot, no others. Maybe your pedi is following an adapted vaccine schedule? I'd ask if they have a list of vaccines by month for your reference next time you're there.

  • My dd got the last Hep B at her 9 month visit. Long with the first flu shot and a prick on the toe to check her blood for lead (I think thats what it was... or it was her liver? Now I'm drawing a blank)

  • DS just got his flu shot and a toe prick to check his iron and what not.
  • Rowan had 4.  He was technically one week shy of 9 months.  It depends on the vaccination schedule they have him on.  Now Rowan won't get any shots until April.
