About This Tool

The Vaccination Schedule Tracker helps parents stay on top of their child's immunizations. It displays the CDC-recommended schedule from birth through adolescence, lets you check off completed doses, and highlights what's due based on your child's age.

The CDC Immunization Schedule

The CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) publishes annual vaccination recommendations. The childhood schedule protects against 16 diseases including measles, whooping cough, polio, and hepatitis. Most vaccines require multiple doses for full protection.

Key Vaccination Windows

The busiest vaccination periods are 2 months, 4 months, 6 months, 12-15 months, and 4-6 years. At the 2-month visit alone, babies typically receive 6 vaccines. Don't worry about catching up if you fall behind — the CDC provides catch-up schedules for exactly this situation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What vaccines does my baby need in the first year?
In the first 12 months, babies receive HepB (3 doses), Rotavirus (2-3 doses), DTaP (3 doses), Hib (3 doses), PCV (3 doses), IPV/Polio (2 doses), and Influenza (starting at 6 months). That's about 14-16 doses across 6-7 well-child visits.
Are vaccines safe for babies?
Yes. Vaccines go through extensive safety testing before approval and are continuously monitored afterward. Serious side effects are extremely rare. The CDC, AAP, and WHO all recommend following the standard vaccination schedule. Common side effects are mild: soreness, low fever, fussiness.
Can my child get multiple vaccines at once?
Yes. Studies show receiving multiple vaccines at one visit is safe and effective. The immune system handles thousands of antigens daily. Combination vaccines (like Pediarix) reduce the number of shots while covering the same diseases.
What if my child misses a vaccine dose?
You can catch up. The CDC provides catch-up schedules for children who miss doses. You don't need to restart a vaccine series — just continue where you left off. Talk to your pediatrician about adjusting the schedule.
Where can I find my child's vaccination records?
Your pediatrician's office keeps records, and most states maintain an immunization information system (IIS/registry). You can request records from either. Schools often require proof of immunization for enrollment. Keep your own copy of the vaccination card too.
