A mother calls the pediatrician's office and asks the nurse if she should bring the baby for scheduled immunizations.
 
  The baby has a clear nasal discharge and a little cough, and the mother thinks perhaps the baby should not get immunizations if he has a cold. The nurse's best response is: a. You are correct not to bring the baby to the office and expose other children.
  b. Let's wait until the baby is free of these symptoms. There is no hurry for these immunizations.
  c. Immunizations are not usually contraindicated with a mild illness such as a cold.
  d. Take the baby's temperature. If it is not over 38.8 degrees C (101.8 degrees F), we will go ahead with the immunizations.
