A. no problem 1momth delay is acceptable generally At 9months of age Ur baby will have OPV MMR Typhoid conjugate vaccine MMR vaccination should be given it following time First dose at 9 months of age Second dose at 15 months of age And booster dose at 5 yrs of age. All doses are mandatory These are not optional vaccines Shoud be given at the proper time. Typhoid conjugate vaccine ie typhbar TCV Should be given at 9months of age And second dose should be given at 2yrs of age These are optional vaccines But always better to give It will protect ur baby from typhoid fever.

A. good morning there is no problem in postponement of any vaccination by a couple of weeks there is no harm as such but definitely it will be better if you are able to get all the vaccinations on a timely basis
