Next, ideally there are 7 most important vaccines that your baby should be given. Here's a list: - At birth: BCG, OPV & Hep-B - 6 weeks: DPT, HIB, OPV, Hep-B - 10 weeks: DPT, HIB, OPV/IPV - 14 weeks: DPT, HIB, OPV - 18 weeks: IPV - 6 months: Hep-B - 9 months: Measles There are optional vaccines also that you can opt for. I have listed them below: - At 6, 10 & 14 weeks: Ratovirus vaccine - At 14, 18, 22 weeks & 1 yr: Pneumococcal - At 1 yr & 18 months: Hep- A Hope this helps!
