POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 11 m old boy1 Year agoA. The MMR vaccine (Measles, Mumps, and Rubella) is typically given in two doses:
First Dose: The first MMR dose is usually given at 9 months in some countries, though in other places, it may be given at 12 months. This is the first shot in the series.
Second Dose: The second dose is typically given at 15 to 18 months, as per the vaccination schedule.
It is given as a single shot containing all three vaccines (measles, mumps, and rubella) at once.
To clarify, MMR is not administered in three separate shots. The first dose, typically at 9 months, and the second dose later (12–18 months) complete the vaccination schedule.
Always check with your pediatrician for your country's specific vaccination schedule and any additional recommendations.
