Connor had his 6 week checkup with the paediatrician today and all is absolutely fine. Our paediatrician is a very nice guy and very supportive, and he even suggested we could ring them for advice from overseas if we needed to, which is really nice.
We told the paediatrician how we had enquired with the doctor about vaccinations for Connor since the doctor told us not to worry about vaccinating him till we get to The Netherlands. The paediatrician gave us very good advice and said to absolutely give him the vaccinations, even though they will be a week early, since the worst breeding ground for viruses and illnesses is in fact on a plane. He said to get the doctor to call him if there’s any issues and that in fact the latest news was that they were considering changing the recommendation from 8 weeks and bringing it earlier to 6 weeks, so there’d be no harm in Connor having them at 7 weeks.
