Guest guest Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 Yes it does. My son had the combos and Chickenpox, hib, Dtap and MMR and I counted that as nine. Seems to me I missed one that he got. OT: vaccine question I was just checking my son¢s shot record. When people ask me how many shots my son got in 1 day- what do I say? Does the MMR count as 3? Thanks for any input. Feb. 9th, 2001 (DOB 8-27-99) DTP/TETRA OPV HbPV/TETRA MMR Prevnar - Ps- he got 17 vaccines not including the ones in the hospital (hep b for sure). Last vaccine was on 4-12-01 (20 months old) Never miss a thing. Make your homepage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for Your child received 17 antigens that day............ in 4 shots and 1 oral dose Better to talk about antigens or strains that were included...... MMR is 1 shot but 3 antigens Prevnar is 7 strains of pneumococcal bacteria DTP - 3 OPV - 3 Hep b - 1 HIB - 1 any input.

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Thanks Sheri- When I heard the Polleys and talk about how many shots their kids got in 1 day- it got me thinking my math was wrong. I kept saying “4- with one being the MMR”. Then I looked at his shot records again. This day back in 01, I had to leave the room because they wanted me to hold my son down for the 4 shots. I couldn’t do it and went in the next room and cried. So- I didn’t remember exactly what he got. Well, at least we stopped at some point- lol. - On 3/22/08 11:03 AM, " Sheri Nakken " <snakken@...> wrote: At 02:26 PM 3/21/2008, you wrote: I was just checking my son‚s shot record.
