[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to ask your pediatrician, not DCUM. Probably he or she will happily accommodate you.[/quote]

OP here ..Of course I will discuss it with a doctor. I am just curious how often  American parents even  bring these issues to their doctors  [/quote]

How old is your kid? I hated having to do shots as i felt bad (although baby is over it after a few min) and would have hated doing 4 separate trips to the doctor. Do you work? It’s also a PITA. And that is the recommended vaccination schedule [/quote]

OP here...I am in my third trimester.  I work,  what is PITA?  [/quote]

Ahh ok, you don’t even have the baby yet. It feels torturous to take a little baby to the doctor and get shots - you know what’s coming, baby doesn’t, baby is happy, you have to hold the baby down and then baby is so mad and it’s really sad! Baby is over it as soon as you feed it, but still. And you take time off / docs run late / FTM analyzes baby super carefully to make sure all is fine. It just feels like a lot of extra effort and torture for little benefit aside from you not being from the states. It sounds like a lot but generally these are combo shots. Rotavirus is oral. I don’t ever recall more than 2 shots in a visit which must have been combo shots.[/quote]
