Anyone not getting their 1 year old vaccinations at their 1 yr old appt? Are you spreading out? I am not sure what I am doing as of yet. I def want the vaccinations, but i will admit I am nervous to get the MMr and the Chicken Pox which are live viruses and may cause reactions etc. My LO is home with me... I plan to get them , but possibly later in the year and def spread out .

Re: 1 year old immunizations... ANyone spreading out?
I had Nora get hers all at once. We've never had any issues from vaccinations. Oh, and she didn't get MMR and Chicken Pox at the same time. MMR was earlier in the year. Chicken Pox was this time...
I didn't, but if I could do it over again, I would. My girls had a particularly hard time with this round. They both fought fevers off and on for a week or so and were super crabby for several days after. They also had a really hard time walking for a few days as well.
I can't say for sure that it was because of the shots, but if I can make them less miserable, I will.
Let me say that I am very pro-vax and prior to this, I saw no reason to use an adjusted schedule. I don't think I would wait until the 15 month appointment, but just a month or so. MMR would come first and then chicken pox at a later time.
We are getting all of our vaccines on time for her protection.
Although, at her 12 month check up they gave us the option of doing her Hib shot now or at her next check up and we chose her next check up. Not because of reactions but rather to have 4 this time and 3 next time instead of 5 and 2.
