We'd vaccinate number 2 after a week of rotavirus which almost landed us in hospital so many times. Was hideous. I think the vaccine (oral) needs to be completed by 24 weeks so there's not heaps of time to think about it]]> Sun, 06 Mar 2011 20:03:23 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38268&PID=1280233&title=rota-virus-vaccine#1280233 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38268&PID=1280075&title=rota-virus-vaccine#1280075 Author: tropics

ds peadeatrician recommended that I get it for ds, I was thinking about it, then he ended up in hospital with a uti we were discharged and ended up back in hospital with the rotavirus that he caught whilst in hospital! he was 4 months old and was terrible, I wish I had vacinated him now, will be doing number two for sure.]]> Sun, 06 Mar 2011 13:51:36 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38268&PID=1280075&title=rota-virus-vaccine#1280075 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38268&PID=1279582&title=rota-virus-vaccine#1279582 Author: WestiesGirl

I suggest reading the package insert for ANY vaccine you are going to give, that has way more information in it than what you will find anywhere else, and IMO always makes for interesting reading. The Rotarix one can be found here

The rotavirus vaccine was never on my radar. I had an ebf baby and bf babies don't tend to get rotavirus in the first place, and if they do it tends to be milder as human milk has a protein in it that binds to rotavirus and prevents replication. There wasn't a Rotavirus vaccine when DS1 was a baby.]]> Fri, 04 Mar 2011 20:39:11 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38268&PID=1279499&title=rota-virus-vaccine#1279499 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38268&PID=1279399&title=rota-virus-vaccine#1279399 Author: MuckyBucky

Hi

Just wondering if anyone knows about the rota virus vaccine - if they got it and why/why not.

Not really wanting to enter a debate about vaccinations but trying to find out more information about it.

Cheers]]> Fri, 04 Mar 2011 12:59:11 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38268&PID=1279185&title=rota-virus-vaccine#1279185
