Do you remember exactly what vaccines you've had as a child.

I really don't know for sure.

Good record keeping helps.

No idea. Whatever ones we had to have. I distinctly remember going to get them because I hated getting shots. We were always vaccinated with everything.

I think my mother followed whatever directives my pediatrician 'recommended', plus I travelled a lot so there were more vaccinations on top of those domestic ones.......

I have no idea. We went to the doctor regularly, so I assume I got all the required vaccinations.

I know I had mumps as a child. I had chicken pox as a child.

I know I have not had a tetanus booster. I definitely have not had the hepatitis vaccine.

Had everything I was required to. So did my son. It was required, you had to. We did ok for the most part.

I remember the sugar cube too at school.

I have no clue. I have had the mumps, chicken pox and measles. Had the measles in high school.

Re: Do you remember exactly what vaccines you've had as a child.

Interesting question, as I was thinking about that the other day. I have no idea. I know I got a bunch of them but then I figured out (remember, I was just a kid) that if I didn't bring the paper home for her to sign I didn't have to get another shot. She would never know the difference, as I was the oldest.

I think I had most of the regular stuff like measles and such. Most kids did, back then. I also had whooping cough. I don't think there was a vaccine for that back then anyway. That was kind of brutal. Always had upper respiratory problems.

But I would have no way of knowing which ones I got and which ones I didn't. I just hated shots and was so pleased with myself that I figured out how to avoid more of them. Smiley Happy

I have my kids little "booklets" with shot records, height and weights through toddler years in the safe deposit box. And a copy of their latest "blue" card.
