[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, consider this a lesson learned, [b]you are your child's best advocate[/b].  I adore and trust my ped but as a parent I strive to be as educated as possible, including knowing what vaccines are to be administered at each visit.

This is SO TRUE.  Unfortunately, I also learned this lesson the hard way with DC #1 (about being an advocate for my kid).

Agree with the PP though, that I wouldn't stress too much about your kid not getting it.  I'd be mad that the pediatrician made the decision without consulting me though.  [/quote]

I printed the CDC vac schedule before he went to our first out of hospital appt.  i got the practices schedule from them.  Identical.

at each one I was told which vacs he got that day and which he would get next time.  Compared them.  Knew enough to question if I thought he missed one, or ask something (like a kid version flu shot this year).

This doesn't seem "beyond" anyone. And doesn't seem like a lot of trouble. Trust your doc, yes.  Trust, but verify. It is part of your job as a patient (for yourself) and as an advocate ( for your kids). [/quote]
