But on 30 Nov 17 we went for rotavirus1 n pneumococcal1 n doctor gave him mistakenly again dpt1 n others vaccination with rotavirus n pneumococcal. He said there is nothing to worry about.

Inadvertently if the second dose of vaccine has been given too early than scheduled gap then this dose becomes invalid or will have less than optimal response. No side effects as such seen but then next dose would be given one month after this dose
Next Steps
Get the next dose after this invalid dose
