Has anyone given the vaccine to a just-over-6-month-old?

If so, any experiences to share?

I got it for my 8 m/o who is not chubby by any means. I know that's not your specific questio,n but I'd be more concerned if by height and weight my infant was on the low side at 6 months. My coworker got it for her 7 m/o, and I don't believe she had any adverse effects from the vaccine.

Yes, our 6 mo + 3 wk. old got it on Saturday at the clinic at Coolidge HS in DC. No side effects whatsoever, so far, she has been as happy and healthy as ever all week. She also only cried for a split second -- it was a way better (quicker, seemingly less painful) experience than we've had with her getting her other vaccines at the ped's office.

I could have written this exact post, down the the location, the age, and the reaction.
