MMR and MR vaccine
My daughter took her MMR1 vaccine at 9th month and MMR2 at 16th month from private clinic. And today we went for a 18th month vaccine at government hospital..
As per her chart provided by private hospital the dose for today was DTP,Opv and hibA1.. so when I asked the nurse of government hospital which vaccine you have injected so they told that DTP and MR along with opv and vitamin A as orally..
My concern is that I have already provided two doses of MMR but still they provided MR so is it anything to worry about..
Please suggest if anything to be worried about and what I can do now.. or is it fine and it will not have nau side effects.
Kindly requesting someone to advise please

It's ok now that u have been administered. But government staff will not check any of your previous history. You need to be careful as to what is being given and make sure you don't miss out on any vaccine or give extra .

No need to worry for taking MR now. Government and private schedules are different. Please confirm before taking injection

There is no need to worry. But when you go to Government always be sure what you want to give regarding vaccine. They just follow their schedule without knowing yout past vaccine history. They have trained staff for putting injection but not with updated knowledge.
Your baby does not require additional third dose of MMR or MR after 2 dose of MMR which you have already given.
You have to say then strait forward NO when you do not want additional vaccine. Before go to government pls do prior consultation to your pediatrician, then only go to give vaccine.
