Regarding vaccination
My daughter got vaccination at 6 weeks for ipv, hib, hepatitis B, dtap, rotavirus and Pneumococcal(as per booklet give by hospital), the doctor gave vaccination, one of them was hexaxim brand of vaccine which covers ipv, hib, dtap and hepatitis B. Now again @10 months my daughter was to be given ipv, hib, dtap, rotavirus and Pneumococcal excluding hepatitis B(as per booklet) and doctor again gave hexaxim. Is it OK to give hexaxim since hepatitis B was not recommended at 10 months.My daughter already had one dose of hepatitis B at birth already.

I think Baby did not receive 3rd dose of hexaxim 14 weeks as per your card. That’s why she received this.
No problem follow your pediatrician opinion
