Did you vaccinate your child?

[marimari]

Hello parents,

We are now in a campaign about H1N1, and I would like to know from parents who has just vaccinated what do they think, if it is better or worse, the time to do this here in my country is untill April 22nd. Need advice.

Personally, I would stay (and my family is staying) very far away from this vaccine.

I will definitely vaccinate my child when he is old enough (6 months), and we both got vaccinated for the new H1N1 influenza before he was born. My area of professional expertise is infectious diseases and not vaccinating (unless there is a specific allergy to the vaccine components) is unconcionable in my opinion. Vaccination is one of the safest, most effective ways to prevent diseases in individuals AND to reduce circulation of the infectious organism in the general population. I am not sure what this new paranoia about vaccination is all about (if it is about autism, this has been repeatedly debunked). People forget the devastation caused by diseases like polio and so many others. Influenza is a life threatening disease in small children and it is extremely contagious...

In our practice ( I am working with pregnant woman, in Labor and Birth) we recently had 3 serious cases of side effects from flu vaccine during pregnancy, one was immediate spontaneous abortion in mid pregnancy and two others, -- complications in babies. Thankfully, most of the parents we are working with are well informed, and have access to care of superior specialists on their fields, and hardly any chose to vaccinate, but those few were very sad cases.

What I would suggest, is that you would do a thorough research, and not just make decisions based on some nurse or local doctor opinion. After all it has to do with safety of your child. I would suggest building your child's immunity, avoiding medications and sugars, which interfere with healthy immune system responses, hygene, good nutrition.

From my experience your child would have less problems and avoid more dangers that way.

When it comes to vaccinating I really like Dr Sears advice.  The truth is there are risks if you vaccinate and there are risks if you don't vaccinate.  He looks at stastics for both scenerios and determines which has the least risk.  I some cases he recommends delaying vaccination.

I looked around for his advice on the H1N1 and the last update I could find was posted Sept 2009.  He recommends delaying decision on getting this vaccine until the second round of safety trials are done. Here are links to his blog:

I vaccinate my 2 children, because my youngest baby was infected by the swine flu in the hospital when he was born,the three days of leaving hospital, we had him hospitalized with fever. Arrived at the hospital with 101.2 F, to the 40 minutes that were there, his temperature reached 103.9F. we had to stay 5 days with him in the hospital. Was very sad.

Dear parents,

After all your tips and experiences in this subject, I decided to vaccinate my babies and they didn´t have reaction, it is everything ok. Thanks at all.

[L and J]

Congratulations marimari, I know how hard should be... I did not want to do with my kids, but the doctor said if they get the flu, that could be so dangerous...And she even said that if he was not treated timely, it could even have died.

[marimari]

Thanks L and J,

You helped me so much! and thanks God for your baby is very very good! Everything passed.

We chose not to vaccinate as the MMR shot, immediately caused my son to stop talking at 18months(the morning after the shot) and he was after diagnosised with autism. The H1N1 shot was rushed out too fast without proper testing and my cousin who works in the ER said they had twice as many compliactions due to H1N1 vaccines then the actual H1N1 flu

Agree with you, waterdreamer, lots of complications... So sorry about your son, I hope he is doing better and I hope that other parents can avoid tragedies by informing themselves...

Thank-you Skylark. We are on the road to recovery, were the lucky ones. I kick myself every day for not doing more research. don't get me wrong I'm not anti vaccine. There is a time and place for everything. But I don't believe in taking rush vaccines or flooding our young childrens bodies with so many vaccines at once.

Please listen to this, food for thought. We suffered through this with my son.

Thank-you for sharing that link! Karma to you. I watched episodes and will watch more this week. I feel so strongly on vaccines, some times its hard for me to keep my cool on the subject. I recently refused my son's 4 year shots. We are finally progressing in the right direction with his therapy, I don't want anything to interfer with it. I asked her to test his blood to see if he needed these vaccines immediately or if it could wait till he is 6 or 7 and his brain is nearly 90% developed. She said based on his health history she sees no issue in waiting. But not everyone is blessed with an understanding doctor like we are.
For H1N1 my son and I both took so naturopathic immunity boosters provided by our naturopathic doctor. And we both were exposed to H1N1 several times and never got sick from it

Good for you for going with your gut feel. I wish I had. When I watched that video I felt sick to my stomach to see what I had done to the most precious child. I will now do everything in my power to free him of the heavy metals in his system. We are still paying the price. I have compiled a spreadsheet of every vaccine, their contents, the side effects of the vaccine and the disease, the number of deaths from the disease etc. So you can make your own mind up about it. I read over 30 books on the subject and simply compiled the evidence from the books. If you are interested, I could upload it.

Here is an interesting bit of information. I am South African and my husband is Swedish. In South Africa, a country riddled with so many diseases, we only have 8 vaccinations and in Sweden, a first world country, the only have 7 mandatory diseases. Doesn't that say something about the 56 mandatory ones we need here in the US????? Big Business or what?
