[quote=Anonymous]OP, my kids' issues are very different, but if I were you, I would think specifically about my kids needs and if there is a reason NOT to do it. There may well be, especially if she is medically fragile in other ways. I am debating whether to put off my daughter's HPV vaccine for a year or two. She has tremendous anxiety about shots, and I'm hoping if I wait a year or two, that will resolve. (It's tough for me as a mom, because I'm in the "What's the big deal? It's just a little needle!" camp -- but I have to keep reminding myself that these anxieties are not rational and dealing with them rationally is not helpful.) I do make her get the ones that "have" to be done at a particular time, but our pediatrician says that there is a little wiggle room on the HPV, so we may wait another year. [/quote]
