I just dread the days when I have to take Vihaan for his Vaccination :( But then vaccines are important in our country where you can easily catch an infection before you can say "Achoo" :-/ So I have uploaded Vihaan's vaccination schedule. The Doctor gave me this file on his birth and it has a list of all vaccines required till Vihaan turns 15!! Also listed are some optional vaccines which you may or may not give the child.
Optional Vaccines:
The Doctor till date has recommended Rota virus and Vaxigrip. Check out the links below for more info:

Painless Vaccines:
Now a days, a painless vaccine is available for DPT (Diphtheria+Pertussis+Tetanus). It is called Dtap. Although it is not totally painless, it reduces the pain and swelling at the point of injection and also reduces the chances of developing a fever. However, some children show the usual fever and swelling symptoms even after taking this vaccine. It is best if you apply a little ice at the point of injection to prevent swelling.
