Quick injection question

[Dionne]

Hi Dior has her pneumococcal injection today at 3.45pm

she has been unwell but seems better just a cold now. runny nose etc.

i have looked on the net if they will still give her it but cant find any thing?
and i cant phone the docs? my mobile has been cut off

My friend took her baby to have it before xmas and they couldn't do it as he wasn't well - does she have a temp?

 

[Dionne]

No she dont have a temp. just snotty and watery eyes?
she has had a bad cough but it has cleared.?

i hope they can do it? as my sister is watching Harley so i can take Dior. the baby clinic in my docs is up stairs its a night mare leaving the buggy at the botom carrying both babies up the stairs and trying to hold them both.

just found this

Babies with minor coughs and colds without fever, or those receiving antibiotics in the recovery phase of an acute illness, can be immunised safely and effectively. Immunisation should only be postponed if a child is very unwell with a high fever (over 38.5ºC).

so she should be ok.

hope its not a wasted journey. i dont live close to my doctors

When i took jamie for his he had a cold and had been slightly unwell all week, so i rang up the surgery in the morning and they said they wont do it if he has a cold and they cancelled the appointment!

Wow thats a bit harsh

I think it must vary with each surgery, Jack had a Cold, cough and Temp couple of days before his, but just had cough and was still snotty when i took him and they gave him it no problem

Oops Soz Dionne, bit late replying

Dionne my surgery didn't give it to Rebecca when she had a runny nose or cough as they said it wouldn't work! She didnt have a temp neither.

Doubley check! Rebecca had hers cancelled 3 times in all
