Li and I are going though a vaccinations dilemma.
I am all for giving JiXiang her vaccinations and my father has been almost annoying with his assistance that she get vaccinated for meningitis. This is obviously a personal family thing but I totally agree with it.
Our dilemma comes from the fact that most of these vaccinations require booster shots over a few years.
Now here is the question...
Should we start her on the vaccination course now, in Japan,
or
wait until we have moved to Canada?

Li believes that the shots differ slightly from country to country because of supplier. I honestly have no idea.
She has receives her TB shot already and should be getting her polio soon. Now if things work out as planned (NOT) she will be seven months of age by the time we go to Canada and will be within the safety area for the first round of shots for some things. If it is later I have no idea what course of action we should take.
Does anyone out there have any info on this? I dont even know where to start looking.
Dad has said he is going to go to the health nurse in town but he is a procrastinator and will probably never get there.
