With my dd who is now almost 3 we asked for the IPV instead of the OPV which they grudgingly went ahead and gave,and then with our other dd who is almost 14 months they had already started routinely giving the IPV for the first two doses which was relatively new then.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2008 Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 I love this quote: We live in a world in which we need to share responsibility. It's easy to say " It's not my child, not my community, not my world, not my problem. " Then there are those who see the need and respond, I consider those people my heroes.
