What vaccines should a newborn get?

I have a newborn baby. I want to know what vaccines should a newborn get?

She should get hepatitis B vaccine right away and then a second dose at one month. Our childhood vaccination schedules are found in many places - most pediatric clinics know these well. Vaccinations are safe and very protective. And do not forget to make sure her mother (you) gets her vaccines, too. Your baby daughter cannot get the flu vaccine until she is six months old, but she can catch the flu so her mother and family should be vaccinated to protect her.
