The first vaccine after birth, according to the Ministry of Health's vaccination schedule, is the first dose of Hepatitis B vaccine given at birth. This is usually given before you leave the hospital.
Then starting at the end of the 2nd month (from 8 weeks onward), your baby receives the combination vaccine (five-in-one), pneumonia vaccine (PCV), TB vaccine (BCG), and the second Hepatitis B dose. For the complete schedule, I recommend getting an appointment at your Child Health Clinic at your baby's 2-month checkup.
