I suppose I should note that this is one of the reasons our Ped has been such an advocate of shots and we have been receptive: a sick baltspawn means two sick baltspawn. One sick infant is bad; two is grueling. We do everything in our power to keep the kids from getting sick (not that other parents don't, but it's something we tend to be really aware of - we're backing off a bit now that the baltspawn are a little easier to handle). You haven't really lived until you've had two 14 month olds simultaneously vomit on you.
