Thank you.
DS (4) has had his baby jabs and has autism. I am confident that none of the jabs have caused his autism, but I am not confident that they are a good thing in a general sense for someone who has autism and the biological complications that sometimes go with it. I am being hounded for him to have his preschool booster.
Now DD is in perfect health in every way that I can see. She has had all her baby vacs (Although quite late) but not yet her MMR. I halted all vacs when I got ds' diagnosis.
Now ideally, I would like to start up the vacs programme with them both from where I have left off, but felt that to do so without being fully informed of the potential risks would be irresponsible and I would never forgive myself.
I'd like to point out that it isn't the MMR in particular that I am worried about, but vacs in general wrt to the specific needs and vulnerabilities of my children. i.e. one with severe autism, and the other at high risk.
Many TIA
