yes, but be sure they split the dose in to two separate shots. I gave many immunizations and a baby is a higher risk than a healthy adult for getting the flu.

NO! I am studying The Seasonal Flu (Influenza) and flu shots or flumist are NOT a good idea for little kids from newborn to the age of six. If your little bud does happen to get the flu, take him to a doctor straightaway, but the flushot is too much for him, for the fku shot contains particles of a dead inflenza virus, which would likely cause him to get it, because your baby is still working up a healthy immune system.. I am not sure, but I think they have something of a flu shot for little guys, so ask your doctor about that.

YES!! My daughter is 2 and 1/2 and just got hers and has been getting them since she was born. I get them myself also. Better to be safe than sorry. Young children under 5 and the elderly are the populations that usually die from flu complications.

Yes I think she should but it is more important if she suffers from asthma or any other respiratory diseases.
