“.. rather space them out over a period of time..”
That is exactly what we did with our 3. One vaccine and I made another appointment the following month or so. I was amazed at how many people would allow their young kids (babies) to be subjected to numerous vaccines at once. TBH the following appointments weren’t a huge issue either. We were escorted into the examination room and didn’t have to see the doctor. In and out within 15 minutes.
You’d be surprised how many pediatric practices these days will ‘fire’ you as a patient for even suggesting such a thing. Many will call CPS if you leave without getting the ‘recommended schedule’.
Insurance companies penalize pediatric practices if their vaccination rate falls under 95% on the recommended schedule.
And parents with kids in daycare don’t have a choice to delay vaccines.
This is anecdotal, but my wife’s girlfriend also married a GI and he took her back to NJ. They had a child and the doctors said “take all these shots”. They did, the baby became a basic vegetable. I never forgot that.
The problem with all these vaccines is that the manufacturers are given immunity once it is approved by the government - and trying to get the government to admit anything it doesn’t want to is a Herculean task, at best.
They are now giving them vaccines before they leave the hospital as newborns.
I’m like you old school on vaccines, space them. You are only over whelming their immune system if you don’t space them. So it takes a few extra trips to the doc. Better safe than sorry.
Here is what google turned up. I remember reading a article where a baby was given 8 or 9 vaccines at once and died.

I don’t even give my dogs their heart and flea meds at the same time, unless I want to be cleaning up puke.
This is what I'd do if my kids were young now. I don't remember mine having so many vaccines at one time 30+ years ago.
Both my daughter and daughter in law are currently pregnant. My advice to them will be vaccinate but spread it out.
