Brief Answer:
First vaccination should be on 45 days only - not earlier
Detailed Answer:
Hi...Coming to your queries directly.
1. First vaccination should be on 45th day only. It should not be given earlier. You should vaccinate the baby on 21st of December. But 3 days prior doesn't matter. But make sure that the hospital where you are going is working in Sunday and they are putting vaccinations on a Sunday.
2. This could be a simple block of nasolacrimal duct. I suggest you get back to your pediatrician so that he will teach you a small exercise so that it will open up automatically.
