Thanks. I talked to my pediatrician and he said it’s not necessary since my wife is negative for hepatitis b. We will give it to him later on. Maybe after a year old when he’s ready for daycare

You’ve got a good Dr.The vast majority,are going to follow the American Academy of Pediatrics,list of recommended vaccines and not use any common sense.
I would ask him if it’s necessary at 1 year old.Personally,I think it would be better to wait until,he approachs,adolescence.
I can see some value to the Hep A vaccine,toddlers are nasty ,they put anything and everything in their mouths and Hep A is spread by the fecal-oral route.
