Sinead,
We say it is ok for the infant to receive live vaccines as long as they are not immunocompromised.

Enbrel and live vaccines
I am breastfeeding my 7 month old and have been taking enbrel for the past 4 months- he is thriving.
However I have recently been advised to delay his vaccination for mmr- measles, mumps, rubella, for at least 7 seven months after I stop breastfeeding. I was wondering if you agree with this as it would mean I should stop breastfeeding immediately and I would like to continue. (He should get the vaccine at 12 months)
