    I have to go out of town on Monday, 9/15, until thursday, 9/18. My husband agreed to give Baby her shots, but he won't be testing her... So the question is, do I just hold whatever dose Baby's taking the day I leave and not have him increase? I'd rather have Baby's numbers be on the higher side than risking too low while I am not home. Advice/comments/concerns? Thanks.

    I think you mean 10/15 to 10/18. I would not increase the dose if your DH is not testing. If Baby starts getting into blues and greens, you may need to decrease the dose to keep her safe. It's best to post a couple of days before and ask so you can reduce the dose if you need to before you leave.

    I agree with Carla's advice. Post a day or two before you leave to get opinions about whether or not to have your DH shoot a reduced dose. I would tag Wendy in that post, since she is our most experienced Acro mom. Will you husband test before shooting or not at all?
