A. Hello, your baby girl is 17 months old and she has received her MMR vaccinations booster dose at 16 months so it’s okay but she should be given 3rd dose at 4.5 years

A. yes you can go for the third dosage if another country requireds the third dosage at such an early age because usually in India we give the third dosage between 4 years to 6 years of age
