I don't really want to know the reasons why or why not because we could argue that forever.
Just wanted to know what the stats are as far as HB and vaccinating..

The only thing we skipped this year was the flu shot because he turned 6 months near the end of flu season and isn't in daycare. DH both got one, though.

LI is too young but we will follow the ped's recommendations for all her vaccines.

Yeah, the whole timing of the flu shot is sort of why I tried to eliminate it from the poll. I figure you make that decision every year, it can't fit on my generalized poll!

@googly-eyes: Haha sorry, so tired that I managed to skip right over the bit about not including the flu shot!

Everything but the flu, but we'll get that at his nine-month visit in November. My LO will be traveling to Peru at some point, so he needs to be fully protected!

Also just wanted to say thanks to all for not starting any kind of debate... This is why I come to HB.

We vaccinate fully but did skip his flu shot at the last appt, will probably get that at his next appt.

We've vaccinated fully and we will do the same for future children.

M and any future LOs will be fully vaccinated on the recommended schedule.

Fully vaccinate on schedule. Suffice to say we feel very strongly about the importance of vaccination.

Didn't vote because baby isn't here yet, but we will fully vaccinate on schedule.

I fully vaccinate but don't do more than 1 shot at a time, so some are delayed but not by more than a few months.

I fully vaccinate my children and work hard to vaccinate every child I care for.

I have more than 1 child, need multiple voting... G is fully vaccinated, on schedule until 12 mths & then delayed until 4. P is not vaccinated at all.

We have done them all on time. She has her 12 month appt Wed and I'm hoping they have flu shots.

I voted fully and on time, but they normally do a delayed schedule here (compared to the US).

We didn't have an option to select vaxes, they were offered in combinations not available is single vaxes so we went the recommended route.

@SugarplumsMom: I didn't know that! I mean, it makes sense but I (tsk tsk) didn't even think about that when i made the poll, sorry. Learn something new every day...

We delayed her first Hep B shot but everything else has been on schedule and she is fully vaccinated. We also get the flu shot every year and I expect that we'll give LO that as well.

LO has had her 2 months vaccinations and will continue to receive her vaccinations on schedule. So babies can't get flu shots until 6 months old? That's Christmas Day for LO.

DD is vaccinated, but we spaced the first ones out just a bit, and are delaying the MMR a little. Otherwise she's pretty much on schedule. Said no to flu, Hep b (she'll get it when she's older), and chicken pox (although might change on this one).

We did them all according to the pediatrician's schedule. If I did more research, I think we might have potentially decided to space them out or delay somewhat, but I don't have the time to do the research, and I trust our doctor.

Yep, fully. I think we might have fewer than in the US though? Someone up thread mentioned Hep B which we don't do until Grade 7/age 12.
