Catching up: Missing vaccines puts your child at risk of catching the diseases that the vaccines protects against. If you took your child to all of her normal well child checks before this, she is currently vaccinated against most of the diseases that can cause significant problems in children. If not, they will catch her up at this visit. Bring your vaccination card (yellow) so they can note any new shots.
