Just a note on what happened in japan in the 1950s when the Americans occupied that country post WW2, & initiated a vaccination program which seen autism rates soar when previously they were unheard of.
The mothers in many prefectures got violent towards their local doctors who then stopped vaccinating. From this time on autism plummeted, unfortunately a couple of generations later the spin machines were again at full flight & the lessons of the past were forgotten.
can anybody really believe vaccinating a new born baby with many strains of a live serum derived from dead animals & feotus’s, preserved in a mercury is safe. It’s criminal insanity.
Just check “pinks disease” another great little initiative of the AMA, while you are at it research how the AMA came into being & you will find the usual suspects behind it!!!
I am currently pregnant and I would like to make the best informed decisions when it come to vaccinating if at all my new baby.
There is heaps of reading material out there. Just keep looking and reading would be my recommendation. I choose not to immunize my little one and I am happy with the decision. After two of my friends have both immunized there little ones and one has had whopping cough and the other has had Rotivirus twice (both fully immunized and up to date). Plus when you read some of the stuff that is in the vaccines. What ever you do make a informed decision.
I would say for your little ones and for other children around the very best thing you can do for your little one is vaccinate, its a little like wearing a seat belt in your car, on rare occasions the will injure or even kill but for the vast majority of cases they save lives the only difference is we make seat belts compulsory! Please think of your baby because VACCINATIONS REALLY DO SAVE LIVES!!!!
me too Jenna,
I’m 29 weeks and find the prospect very scary
Hi Renae and Jenna, I have one vaccinated (partially) and one not vaccinated. The second one is generally healthier than the first. When he does get sick, it is for a short time and is self-limiting with no need for any doctor’s visit. I know it is a hard decision for any parent to make especially if there are others giving advice. You have to remember that it is only you the parent who owns the responsibility for that decision not matter which way you go. I have read and researched for more than 12 years now and so far, i have found nothing to make me regret my decision to stop vaccinating my kids. Two books that I recommend : Fooling Ourselves On the Fundamental Value of Vaccines by Greg Beattie and Vaccine Epidemic by Louise Habakus. There is another one I read years ago by Dr. Richard Halvorsen, a GP in England. You can get the name of his books on the net. Good luck !
Yes I have researched into Vaccinations and the things they put into needles is horrible so that the side effects is worse then the illness itself.. I had all my measles and mumps etc all received as a “go and play with your friend.. she has the measles” approach and I have a healthier immune system then my daughter who has been vaccinated… Also having found out now that mercury and many other things are added I am now against vaccinations … Also… when swine flue was around I refused the needles and so did my young daughter and we both had it.. who from? A nurse from the public hospital. It was the very nurses who told me to say no as the additives in the vaccination were too dangerous and they had been asked not to get it.. so when they got the swine flu they were sent home until they were better… Now there is a new virus hitting the countries and guess what??? If you DID NOT have a vaccination against the swine flue you will not have to worry about the affects of that new virus but people who HAD the shots have to be careful
We who didn’t have a better immune system to cope with it. So I think its definitely informed choice.. if we get to know all the information…
