If your baby only has mild to moderate diarrhea and no other serious illness signs (fever over 38°C, vomiting, lethargy, dehydration), vaccination can usually go ahead. Live oral vaccines like the rotavirus shot are even okay with light diarrhea; severe or bloody diarrhea usually means waiting until baby's better. The final call is up to the person giving the shot—they'll check how your baby's actually doing. Make sure to mention the diarrhea before the appointment.
