Re: Those who delay vaxes--what's your schedule?
We under no circumstances will ever do the following:
Chicken pox vaccine (varicella)
Hep B
Hep A
Hep C
flu shots
We wait until 1 year old to do:
Polio
DTaP
We wait until 2+ to do:
MMR
A big suggestion I've had from my favorite Ped., was when selectively vaxing, make sure to ask for separate shots...IOW, ask to have JUST tetanus, rather than the tri or quad vax...and space out the shots, only letting them give 2 max per visit, and only 1 visit per month. This give their immune system alot of time to recover, ESPECIALLY if its during the typical flu or cold seasons
