Re: flu shot-10 month
If they are in daycare yes absolutely.
If not, then it's really up to you to weigh the pros and cons.
I just don't fool around with daycare- because they are just breeding grounds for disease.

I agree but I will add if they are around school aged kids alot! DS1 I got his flu shot for the first time at 9m because he spent a ton of time with his cousins who were all in school at the time. That year DH got the flu, and DS didnt! Now I always get both DSs the shot each year!

Same.
DS 1 got his first flu shot at 11 months and DS 2 got his first flu shot at 6 months. Neither had any side effects.

is your child breastfed? (if not then I'd vaccinate) Is your child in daycare? (if yes, I definitely would, regardless of ff or bf) These are things that would sway my decision.
