These polio doses should not be missed. Make sure that you give it to your baby during next pulse polio drive. Missing the dose doesn't harm your baby's health as he has already received adequate polio doses during his routine vaccination.

This are supplementary doses not compulsory one so not an issue. But can take care next time.
