Study for hope, stef, pls help me with baby's vaccine

[mee79]

Hello, iam hep b inactive carrier, hbvdba has always been undetected since I was diagnosed 10years ago. I had a baby on 25th of October 2022. My baby received hbig and hep b monovalent vaccine within 2 hours of birth. We were told to complete the Subsequent  vaccine with  pentavalent at 6, 10 and 14 weeks of age. My worry is that my baby received pentavalent 3 weeks earlier than the minimum age .The error on the date was made by the nurse that gave the vaccine.i have contacted the hospital and i was told not to worry about it. Should I repeat the vaccine at 6 weeks old which is today 6th December 2022 or wait till 13th of December to observe the minimum interval of 28 days?  What is the implication of giving a vaccine to a baby before the minimum age? Please I need your urgent advice on what to do.. I don't want my baby to contract the virus

Although the schedule was not followed exactly, I believe your baby should still develop antibodies. To be completely sure, your doctor should do a blood test to check the antibodies level. If the response was too low and not enough antibodies were generated then they can repeat the vaccine. If the blood test shows the antibodies are enough then nothing to worry about and your baby is fine.

All they have to do is do a blood test to see if the vaccine was effective or not.  Explain your conern to your doctor. Better not to use a regular family doctor, it is better to see a hepatologist.  They understand how to read the test properly and they will know if you need to repeat. Some doctors do not know how to interpret the results.
