child Immunization

TRACK OF IMMUNIZATIONS

Most of your child’s vaccinations are completed between birth and 6 years. Many vaccines are given more than once, at different ages, and in Combinations. This means that you will need to keep a careful record of your child's shots.

No matter what the reason, it is important to make up missed immunizations.

Common side effects of immunizations include swelling at the site of the injection, soreness, and fever. Discuss these side effects with your doctor and ask what symptoms deserve an office call.

Vaccine-Preventable Diseases

Why Childhood Immunizations Are Important?

It is always better to prevent a disease than to treat it after it occurs.

What happens if I do not immunize my child?

Your child’s body will not be prepared to fight against these diseases and if exposed your child could become seriously ill.

Do children get protection from diseases through breast feeding?

Yes, against some diseases. The immunization schedule was developed so that when the protection from the mother becomes weaker, the vaccination will take over to protect the child.

Should I still bring my child for immunization if they have fever, cold & Diarrhea?

Yes, Immunizing a child who is not seriously ill will not harm the child.

Why does my baby need so many vaccines at once?

Giving several vaccines at once avoids extra trips to the clinic provided paediatrician approves for it.

Note:

It is crucial that all the recommended vaccinations for children are given at the right stage of your doctor-approved schedule. Although the timing for each child vaccination shot may differ according to the age.

If you have any queries regarding vaccinations for your children, you can always approach Our Paediatrician.
