MMR

Well I've had to have the MMR! My son had to have his pre school injections and while talking to the nurse I found out I have never had the MMR.

Well when I was a child it was not around so we would have single injections. I remember having the Rubella at school, at the time is was only girls that had that one. This did show up on my medical records but not the single messels injection. So to be on the safe side I had to have the first does of the MMR jab, at the same time my son had his second dose. Then four weeks later back for my second dose.

Now I am all protected and thanks to my mum keeping my baby book. I found out I had messels in 1986 which could be why I have not had the single injection all those years ago. But at least I am now protected against Mumps which I have not had.
