[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is no health reason to spread out shots, the immune system handles them just fine and combo shots mean fewer sticks.  It's really better to just get them on the schedule, better for daycare, better for your schedule, safer for the baby to get them as soon as they are offered.  A lot of pediatricians around here I have found require patients to comply with the CDC vaccine schedules and that's a good thing.

I get the psychological hesitation, but trust doctors and the science.  It's safe and it is far better for your baby to get them on schedule.

Also:  Make sure to get your third trimester TDAP.  Most babies who die of whooping cough are under 2 months and it's the best thing you can do to protect your baby until they are old enough to get their own vaccjne.[/quote]

OP here, I trust science of my own country....we have far smaller rates of child mortality, autism and other disorders.  I am not suggesting a causal relationship - I am just pointing to the difference. The only explanation for such tight schedule is that the kids are pushed to a daycare early  .In Sweden, parents are entitled to 480 days of paid parental leave[/quote]
