A. 1wk delay is acceptable no problem At  6,10,14wks ur baby should have  DTP, HiB, Hep. B, and IPV  Plus  Pneumoccocal vaccine Plus  Rotavirus vaccine.  In DTP component if u go for whole cell ie DTwP  It may cause pain fever and sometime swelling at vaccination site (painful vaccination).  In DTP component if u go for accelular ie DTaP It doesn't cause pain fever and swelling at vaccination site(painless vaccination).   Both Vaccine ie whole cell or accelular are equally good and effective

A. Ya You can get the vaccination done later if you want to it’s not an issue sometimes you can postpone the vaccination if it is required there is nothing you need to worry about it is not going to have any negative impact on the child don’t worry about it
