I'm Currently Feeling:  | I'm not sure, it might depend on what area you are in. Hannah has her 2 month injections this Thursday, our pediatrician scheduled it, but we've seen her quite often since Hannah was born |

And I was very, very ill after labour and was supposed to be monitored closely for some weeks... never happened!! I had to see the GP to ask about the BCP a couple of weeks ago, and ended up on meds for high BP (it was 152/105!!!!) The flamin' surgery cancelled my appointment THREE times!!!! 
Sorry.... I digress....!!!
With regard to the OP's question, here in Birmingham, I got a letter from the PCT when Morgan was about 5 weeks old, "inviting" me to make an appointment at my GP surgery for the injections for when she was 8 weeks old. But it does vary from area to area... I would call your HV or GP surgery for advice ASAP! |
