On Sunday night, I went on the CDC's website to print their most recent Vaccine Information Statement (VIS). This form is given to new parents who are having their baby receive multiple vaccines. You will see on the link below that they are claiming your child will receive 6 vaccines from birth through 6 months of age.

On this same website, you will see that the CDC recommends that your child receive 19 vaccines from birth through 6 months of age.
Hep B - 3 doses
Rotavirus - 3 doses
DTaP - 3 doses
HIB - 3 doses
Pneumoccoccal - 3 doses
Polio - 3 doses
Influenza - 1 dose

I imagine that this VIS will disappear soon. So, make a copy of it!!
