Vaccination for 10 weeks
My LO is born on 23 May. His 6 weeks vaccinations(PENTA1, IPV1, OPV1 was given on 11 Jul ( he was 7 weeks old). He is 11 weeks for tomorrow (8 Aug). Should I get the second doze of the above vaccinations tomorrow or can I get it on 22nd Aug( He will be 13 weeks then). The hospital gives vaccination only on Thursday. Next thursday 15aug is a holiday for the hospital. So is it ok to get it done on 22nd Aug or should I get it done tomorrow?

Better to take it on 22nd, as the recommonded interval between doses is 4-6wks

A gap of 4 weeks or 28 days has to be maintained between the first and second dose. You may plan accordingly.
