[quote=Anonymous]NP here. We did not get it at first, with the approval of our pediatrician, because we were spacing out the first rounds of vaccines to see how DS reacted (he was small and we have a large allergy/autoimmune history in our family). I was a FTM and was home with him, so there was no exposure to other children. Once he was bigger and we'd gone through all the more important vaccines, I raised it again with her and she also said he was "too old" to need it. Again, I was still home with him so the odds of him getting it were extremely small. What she meant by "too old" was that he was big enough that even if he got it, it was unlikely to make him seriously ill or dehydrated. Basically, it would just be a "regular" sickness and not something that would lead to the hospital. She emphasized that if DS was going to be going to daycare or we had older children in school she would have recommended it. I trust her judgment.[/quote]
