POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy9 months agoA. For a three-month-old baby, the third set of vaccinations is typically due, following the initial series that begins shortly after birth. Here’s what is usually administered around this age, though the exact schedule can vary by country and healthcare provider:
1. DPT (Diphtheria, Pertussis, Tetanus): The third dose in this series helps protect against these serious infections.
2. IPV (Inactivated Poliovirus Vaccine): This dose further strengthens immunity against polio.
3. Hepatitis B: The third dose may be given to continue protection against Hepatitis B, depending on the schedule in your region.
4. Hib (Haemophilus influenzae type b): This vaccine helps protect against infections like meningitis caused by Hib.
5. Rotavirus: The third dose is often given to protect against severe diarrheal disease.
6. PCV (Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine): This is given to protect against pneumococcal infections, which can lead to pneumonia and other illnesses.
Consult your pediatrician to confirm which vaccines are due, as they can provide the exact schedule based on your location and your baby’s health needs. Remember to keep your baby’s immunization record up-to-date for future reference.
