Accepted Answer

yes can be done
there should not be a problem if you postpone it for maximum one month but after that it is not advisable because the child become susceptible to the vaccine preventable disease.
try to get a vaccination as early as possible for first one year to 2 year of age

Answer

Hello dear parent!  As per my knowledge it doesn’t work out that way. The first few vaccinations are to be given on time as much as possible. Consult your local paediatrician for further advice. Continue breastfeeding your baby well on demand. Regularly massage your baby with Babyhug daily massage oil. Good luck and take care.
