I actually have a question to the person who said their LO cried inconsolably for hours after the injection. I am not judging or anything, but just have a question for you. I tried looking back, but couldn't find exactly who said it. My LO is already vaccinated. I actually never thought not to because I just always knew that was something that needed to be done for the safety of my child and others, even though it is not the most pleasant of events.

Anywho, did you give Tylenol and your LO still cried inconsolably? Mine cried like that 2 nights later, but I chalked it up to his colicky behavior and soreness from the injections.

Do not misunderstand me, I am not trying to make light of your situation, I honestly want to know if you tried giving Tylenol for pain afterwards and your baby was still crying like crazy.

I am going to go back and find who said that now. I don't want to look lazy lol

There are real and legitimate reasons not to vaccinate on schedule. Like I said several post up I had a child who was hospitalized twice due to vaccinations. Not everyone who chooses to delay and selectively vaccinate is doing so because of misinformation, most are the exact opposite actually. There are always a few out there that want to spout off autism or aborted fetal tissue but the vast majority of us have very real reasons not to follow the CDC recommended schedule. Vaccines can cause reactions, some very serious and some of those reactions can cause long term damage. I will be the first to admit those situations are rare and liked said in my other post there are also risks to not vaccinating on schedule. I don't think anyone who actually has educated themselves on vaccines will tell you that not vaccinating on schedule is completely risk free but for some of us we do have to weigh the risk of both and decide what we can live with.

Yes vaccines can cause reactions, some serious and causing long-term damage. Guess what. GETTING SICK with the actual illness is MUCH MORE LIKELY TO CAUSE THESE PROBLEMS. See my earlier post. This is why vaccines exist. Because even though they are not without risk, they are far safer and vastly less likely to cause long-term permanent damage than the diseases themselves. If vaccines were more dangerous or just as likely to cause problems as the illness they are preventing, do you really think that they would be used?

I'd like to know what "real reason" you are referring to here for not vaccinating. If your child has had a rare, severe complication due to a vaccine (Such as Guillan-Barre), that's a legitimate and understandable reason for not vaccinating. Getting a fever and acting fussy does not count. Otherwise, you're just putting your kid and others in danger.

I'm sick of people being so damned selfish, like their child is the only person on the planet who matters. Of course we all love our children and don't want anything bad to happen to them. But you're taking a risk, gambling with your child's well-being and others just because of an irrational fear.

Well one of my children was hospitalized twice due to vaccine reactions. Since one of my children had severe reactions my pediatrician will not vaccinate any of my children on schedule. In addition to the hospitalization due to a reaction to one vaccine another left her completely unable to walk for over a week at 15 months. I wish a fever and fussiness was our biggest vaccine reaction. All of my kids are on a very spread out schedule so we can monitor for any other reactions.

You originally said it was an outbreak of measles.  That link talks about a mumps outbreak.  They are different diseases.  The second link is not a scholarly source.  It's a document created by a religious group about the morality of using material from aborted fetuses - it says nothing about your baby's brain cells being attacked.  Seriously, did you actually read these links before telling us to "put that in ur pipe and smoke it?"

I am following Dr. Sear's alternative vaccination schedule which spreads out the vaccines over more time so LO doesn't get as many shots at once. I am also delaying certain vaccines, including MMR, until he is older.

We go to a family practice so the entire family has the same doctor and she is very open to my opinions and is fine with my decisions to delay. We always have detailed conversations about why I'm making my choices (which are well-researched) and she offers her opinions and if she has any, her concerns.

In looking for a doctor you simply need to ask up front how they feel about varied schedules. I like our small family practice because it's more intimate and I always have the same doctor. I think this allows for the more varied treatment because I am not seeing someone different every time we visit. My sister-in-law has the opposite. Her pediatrician is part of a large group, she sees whoever is available and they do not go along with any varied approach because they like to keep things the same for ease of paperwork and office staff understanding.

The first round of MMR typically happens at 15 months. I am waiting until LO is ready for preschool (age 3 or 4) but I've been reading about a blood test that shows natural immunity. If he has natural immunity the vaccine is unneeded. We may do that.

Don't let anyone get to you, make the choices that are right for you and your child. Nature gave you a gut feeling for a reason.

My baby girl just turned 6 months on the 15th.I've gotten to the point where Ihateall pediatricians. I've gone to 4 different ones, and I feel as though I've "settled" because no matter where I go,the doctors and nurses look at me like I'm insane and they try to trick me into getting vaccines I don't want my daughter to get. (saying they have a shot that's 5-in-1 so she doesn't have to get stuck multiple times, even though I've already told them she's not getting tdap. Guess they didn't think Iknew what their magical 5-in-1was.)I do no more than 2 shots per visit (which means that I have to do 2 on her well-baby check, and schedule a nurse visit for a month after. she's not getting tdap, mmr, or chicken pox vaccines (so far). All doctors HAVE to go by what you tell them you want for your child, but NONE of them are going to like it. Just a little heads up.

I'll keep this short and sweet, since you're probably sick of reading the reply posts at this point and you might be wishing you hadn't even asked the question!

GOOD for you for having an instinct to question, even if you read the chart wrong, about the combo vaccines.  I seriously doubt anyone on this board has even read the ingredient list of the MMR, or the potential side effects, but I have.  I suggest you do the same.  They are available on the CDC website (or just do a google search of vaccine ingredients, all on government sites btw).

https://www.huffingtonpost.com/david-kirby/post2468343_b_2468343.html

Here's an article that covers the court case that awarded MILLIONS to two children injured by vaccines, specifically, MMR, this past January.  Always remember who will be caring for your baby if he or she were vaccine injured; your doctor will not be the one taking him or her to therapy, that's for sure.  No one else will be volunteering, either.

If alarm bells are going off, then listen.  Trust those mommy instincts!  You can never UN-inject anything into your child.  

Finally, a little something my pediatrician shared with me:  When children are under the age of 2, they have not yet fully developed the blood-brain barrier which protects their brains from potential injury caused by injectable metals, preservatives, and carcinogens, all of which exist and are damaging (even in trace amounts) in the combo vaccines.

Research, read, ask questions.  Find a doctor that will really hear you out.  There is so much out there that will help you!

Probably getting to this discussion a little late- lol but I would also like to mention a case here that I know of. A parent of one of the kids where my child stays (in home daycare) got the mumps and he was vaccinated as a young child. He has a little boy under one and it scared them to death thinking he could have given this to his baby! There are new strains of these diseases coming out and the vaccines now are more updated to these strains. As it turns out the LO didn't get it but it was too close to call. Play it safe and don't delay because you could get it or family member and pass it on to your child. We were not vaccinated based on the strains of these diseases of today.
