RP: Vaccines and immunity?

I'm sure some of you have read my posts about Jonas' prolonged umbilical cord attachment. Well, it's finally about to come off (thank goodness), but I have read that sometimes a prolonged attachment can mean immunity issues. He is due for his first round of vaccines next week and I'm leaning towards waiting until they do a white blood cell count. Does this sound ridiculous or overbearing? I just feel like I want to be sure about it before going with the regular schedule...and if there are issues, I would like to used a delayed vaccine schedule. WDYT?

  • Doesn't sound ridiculous or overbearing. And, it really doesn't matter what we or even the pedi think, YOU are mommy and you know best.  If your pedi refuses or thinks your a nut, find a new one. 

    I firmly believe that Mommy knows best:)

  • WE are on a VERY delayed schedule. My doc is 100 percent on board with it, too.

    I am not even sure when we will start them (if) ...I have a family history of bad reactions, and I am not comfortable with them at this time.
