Immunization Schedule in Nigeria: The Full Course

A child is considered vaccinated if he/she has received a vaccine against tuberculosis, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, polio-vaccine (at least 3 doses) and measles vaccine (1 dose). All of these vaccines should be received during the first year of the baby’s life, over five visits to the doctor, including those doses that were delivered at birth.

Vaccinations needed at birth are BCG, HBV-1, and OPV-0. They are given to the babies right after they are is born in the hospital. If a woman gives birth at home, she should still go to the local hospital and vaccinate her child.

BCG – this vaccine’s name stands for Bacillus Calmette Guerin. It is a compulsory immunization that prevents the baby from tuberculosis. This vaccine is received on the left arm. Usually, it will leave a small scar, which will be noticeable for the child's entire life. The baby received about 0,05 ml of the vaccine. Tuberculosis is a severe infectious illness which can lead to the fatal outcome without proper treatment. The usual symptoms of it are fever, sweating at night, weight loss, and coughing up blood.

HBV-1 – this is a vaccine against Hepatitis B virus. This immunization measure is given to a baby on the thigh, in the dose of 0,5 ml. It is the first dose out of three. Two next doses of HBV-1 will be given to the child at the age of 6 and 14 weeks. Hepatitis B is a dangerous illness which can affect the liver and lead to serious damage or even cancer. The symptoms of hepatitis B are muscle pain, jaundice, vomiting, diarrhea, and tiredness. Sometimes the symptoms do not show up explicitly.

OPV-0 – this vaccine helps against polio virus. It is given by mouth, in two or three drops. OPV-0 should be given in four doses, and while the first one is given to the baby right after birth, the next ones will be at the age of 6, 10 and 14 weeks.

Polio is a special virus infection which affects the nervous system and might lead to paralysis. Usually, a person gets polio through consumption of water or food which contains the virus, or direct contact with body fluids of an infected person.

The necessary vaccinations at the age of 6 weeks are DPT, HBV-2, and OPV-1.

DPT stands for diphtheria, pertussis and tetanus vaccine. These three vaccines are combined together and given on the thigh in the dose of 0,5 ml.
Diphtheria is a severe illness that can damage the heart and nervous system, and in some cases, it even leads to the fatal outcome. It usually shows up as a thick covering at the back of the throat, which is a primary symptom of the disease and can lead to chills, fever, and sore throat.

Tetanus is a special kind of illness that is possible to catch through germs that get into the body through the open wounds and cuts. It can lead to painful spasms and breathing issues.

Pertussis is an illness which leads to seizures, brain damage, and pneumonia. It causes coughing spells which last for about a week.

At the age of 10 weeks, the child needs DPT-2, HBV-2, and OPV-2. They are all the next doses of the vaccines that were mentioned before.

At 14 weeks, the baby is given the following vaccines: DPT-3, HBV-3, and OPV-3.

The next vaccination has to take place when the baby is 9 months old. The little one has to get the following vaccines:

Yellow fever vaccine – this one is given to the baby at the right arm in the dose of 0,5 ml. It protects the baby from the infectious disease called yellow fever, which usually is common in Africa, especially its tropical and subtropical areas. The symptoms of yellow fever are a headache, vomiting, appetite loss, and muscle pain. Sometimes you can bleed from the nose, mouth, and eyes. This illness is usually transmitted by mosquito bite.

Measles vaccine – like the yellow fever, it is given on the right arm in 0,5 ml dose. This immunization measure will protect your child from measles. It is a very viral infection and one of the primary reasons why children in Nigeria die. Usually, the person who struggles from measles has a high temperature, sore eyes, running nose, little white spots in the mouth, and an allergic rash all over the body.

Vitamin A – this is not exactly a vaccine, but this vitamin is given to a child as a supplement to boost his/her resistance to infections.

To sum up, the primary vaccines that the baby in Nigeria needs from birth to the age of 9 months are:
BCG
OPV
HBV
DPT
Yellow fever
Measles

If you have any questions about the other vaccines, you should clarify them with your medical care provider. Generally, these listed vaccines are the primary ones that are compulsory during immunization schedule for infants in Nigeria. Take care of your baby!

That is very important but never in small hospitals.

MumIbeji:
Good afternoon mamas...
I have catarrh and cough which started since yesterday..
Please who knows what I can use.

Thanks

So sorry Momma.
Forgotten what I used wirj mine.
Just go to a reputable pharmacy, knowing your pregnancy state, you will be given something appropriate. Still research on the net again on what ever you are given though

Lilliesbud12:

I would have waka pass cos a lot has been said already. I am a woman of very strong faith too. Hmm.. since doctor said ur Amniotic fluid is already reducing at 37 wks coupled with hbp... induction "may" pls I didn't say won't.. not work leading to Emergency CS which is always not easy except ur doctor planned alongside for it,the stress it even causes to the mother et al... in this case... go back, check again & follow ur doctors advice.. Elective, planned CS esp when there are known issues such as reduced amniotic fluids,etc is always better than Emergency CS.. talking from experience... thank you.

That was my case, high BP, with reduced amniotic fluid at 37weeks.
God help us all.

booqee:
forgive my ignorance.. Induction doesn't necessarily mean CS right? You can be induced and still have VD? What's the possibility or percentage of VD over CS in induction. How painful is induction compared to spontaneous labour?

cc completey and other experienced mamas

Hi Hi, induction is not CS,
You will have your baby via VD. CS comes in when induction fails, or baby is in distress after prolong labour.
I had my Son at 37weeks via CS, no induction administered cos I was already in ICU. So for the pain, I can't tell, it's sure more painful than natural spontaneous labour.
Induction is always a success, failure rate is mostly determined by mother's strength, leading to baby in distress.. then CS follows.
All the methods are for our own Good, let's trust our Doctors more.

Happychildlove:
Pls to all sabi mamas am I good to go with this?

No ma'am!
You are not good to go.
What was the reason that motivated you to register in your hospital in the first place? TRUST!!!
Now you are moving TRUST to another place where your history was not managed at.
Please go back today and do what the doctor advice. Your Baby is due at 37weeks.
I no wan scare you, am talking out of experience.
First of all, you bp will be dropped using one Magnesium (drip)... don't remember, it's standard procedure b4 Induction commences, if no change with drip... na CS.
Ok dear... follow your heart.

#TeamApril2018!!!
Come out let's show this awesome Momma some love!
We are more than happy to have you in our midst. We thank God for bringing you this far in your preggy journey!!!
We will all land safely by His Grace.

@Mumibeji ... you don senior person for EDD oh

rvpbae:


My own disposable panties is like 6 inside. So i got two, same price. I bought 4 pads.

Do you think i should pack my own bathroom supplies? Like soap, brush, towel etc. I think that's all i haven't got.

Ok...
I pray I get my size in disposable pants.
Oh yes... you need to pack your toiletries in a separate bag, due to scents. You will be needing to stay back after VD for minimum 12hours. For Egyptian women delivery, minimum stay is 3 days... so hospital bag should be double in item quantity.

4realwoman:
Good morning mamas in the house and TGIF.

Team may, hope we have started shopping?

This is the ginger we need to see that we don't have much time left!!!!
See list!
Well done Momma...

Pls, the 250 disposable panties, how many is that? Looks too cheap for a regular pack of 12.
The lady sept you mentioned at 400, is it Pad? That is for one? I was made to buy 5 pad on my list.

mamatwiny:
Team August, how una dey?
Una welcome to 2nd trimester.
The weakness i experience now dey another degree.

I have pains in the bones in my lower back, arround the buttocks side. Is this normal?

I used pregnacare plus till 12 weeks , i didnt experience any nausea , weakness was also mild. The increased signs started after i stopped it. I was given folic acid and fesolate only during antenatal. I dont know if all these things i experience is caused by increase age of fetus or just the pre-natal drugs i stopped.

Sorry dearie... no advise from me.
I guess the Pregnacare was your own prescription. In my case, I told my doctor on my first appointment for ANC, told him all the medication I was on, he asked me to continue cos they were better than Folic and Fesolate given on routine.
Yes, I was on Pregnacare Plus + 5mg Folic. Now am on Pregnacare Max, no more extra 5mg Folic.
I think you should discuss with your doctor if you can go back to Pregnacare... very unlikely with most hospital sha...

rvpbae:


My hospital bag has been packed. Pls can any mama post her hospital bag items, let me be sure i packed the right things, as per FTM.

Ese pupo.

belladsweet:
Mama's please how many TT injections are we supposed to take before delivery? I just took the first one and also what are the things we are supposed to do during antenatal visit? Please help a ftm. Tjanks

Cc: all mama's

You should have a TT card specifying your timing. Your schedule may be different feom another momma.
In my hospital,
1st dose given
2nd dose 4 weeks apart
3rd dose will be after delivery
4rh dose will be a year after
Last dose should be another one-year ... not sure... so with next pregnancy in 2018 ending, i may have only 1 all through the pregnancy due to my card schedule.
Please discuss with your hospital.

Debbiemma:
please add me too)

#TeamApril2018 for real?!
We will be more than happy to have you Momma...

Please give us your EDD and possibly baby's gender so we can welcome you properly.
