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. except one or two vaccines almost all vaccine can be given at any age and the advantage of the vaccine starts when it is given to the child. meet your doctor who will tell you which vaccines can be given at this age as well as whether any booster dosage is required or not.
