Hi there,
I have been taking my 8 week old baby to the Gov't clinics for her immunizations cause they are free. However, I have also been going to the baby clinic at the Matilda as well. She is due for her first shot of DTP next week. I just found out that at the Gov't clinics they use the old DTP and also oral Polio whilst at the Matilda they use the DTaP (acelluar), 5 in 1, polio injection and this supposedly has less side effects. Does anyone have any experiences or advise on this ? I'm thinking of going back to the Matilda for the jabs as not worth risking the side effects........
