What vaccines are recommended now my baby is six months?
When your baby is six months old, it is recommended they have another dose of the combined vaccine that protects against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis (whooping cough), Hib, polio and hepatitis B. It is also recommended that your baby gets an influenza vaccine before the influenza season. Influenza vaccines are free for all children aged six months to under five years, and can be given at the same time as age-specific vaccines.
