Hello Vicki,

Thank you for your question.

I understand your concern but a lot of the immunizations can be given between the

6-18 month range.

So giving them at 9 month would have been fine.

Here is a chart that shows when they are recommended.

Let me know if you have more questions.

Even though he had already received two of the shots at age 6 months? He received his Hib and the PVC shots at 6 months, now again at 8 months!

It is possible that they are trying to catch up or get him back on schedule.

Did you all ask why they gave it to him like this?
