Vaccination

[Lulula1]

Hi all,
i would like to know experience from mums who decided not vaccinated their kids?
im between 2 minds and so scared about the side effects/toxics the vaccines have.
please this is not a post to judge since this is already very hard how it is.

That’s a question your GP needs to be following up

ETA - didn’t see your follow up before I posted this: I assume they’ve looked into genetic conditions? You can always ask for a second opinion - perhaps GOSH?

You know best.

No the OP doesn’t know best.

I've asked my GP she said its not about individual antibodies against diseases but about herd immunity and to speak about it with the nurses as they know more. To me im vaccinating to protect my child but am I actually protecting ? Om still waiting for a call back from the nurses .

I am a mum to a 9 week old, she had he 1st round of vaccinations this past Friday.

She cried during the injection process for approximately 2 seconds and was fine after, the only side effect she recieved was sleepiness for the remainder of the day however by the next day she was completly back to normal.

I highly recommend your child gets them, I understand the rates of infection of the viruses and diseases they are vaccinated for are low but that's due to vaccinations, the diseases themselves are so much worse and life threatening.

@NellyMatrass that's interesting we're the titres 0 or were they just below 20ug/ml, can I ask if ther were born prematurely? did they have the prevaner late due to spreading the vaccines? Perhaps it would be worth speaking to an immunologist for further investigations

It's good technology, get it!! They illnesses it protects from are nasty

Did you even read what ive put in the first place ? That my child is vaccinated but has no antibodies to none of the diseases?

Again did you not read what I've put ? My child is vaccinated and has no antibodies towards none of the diseases except measles and rubella.

Have a look.. I think its below 10.. they called me with the results saying he was never vaccinated. He is.

No was on time. Not late. Maybe by few weeks. And my son was born on 38 weeks weighing almost 4kg..

Nelly, I think Jess was responding to the OP, not you.

It sounds like your DC has something unusual and rare happening with their immune system. It’s to protect children like yours from these terrible diseases that we need to get vaccinations up to the 95% level for herd immunity.

Exactly what toxic side-effects are you concerned about, remembering to set that against the fact that vaccines save lives? get off the anti-vaxx sites and vaccinate your kids. This is a good source of reliable information https://vaccineknowledge.ox.ac.uk/home

Hopefully your kids are more intelligent than you and will start getting them at 18.

I meant to get to the root cause - if there is a genetic reason that antibodies aren’t raised but yes, herd immunity is important and that’s one of the reasons there’s such a big push over measles - if there isn’t x number vaccinated then herd immunity doesn’t work

You are anti vax. Your sister is not a virologist. Your parents are not doctors. The OP does not know best.

PP - ‘I mean the truth is you could vaccinate and it be ineffective if the child catches said illness’

The whole point of vaccination is to prevent children catching said illnesses!! Vaccines are generally very effective. Diseases have been eradicated because of them e.g we had lots of children contracting diphtheria and polio in the UK in the past.

It is very unusual (but not a 'never' thing) to get measles if you've had the MMR. However if you do, it's usually much milder and the risk of complications is much lower than if unvaccinated.

If you really are on the fence, then asking here is a very bad idea. Talk to your healthcare provider for the most accurate information.

Hello! I’d like to help. I did not vaccinate my children - they were absolutely fine :
Until
dc1 developed whooping cough aged 4 and was hospitalised .
dc 1 was also diagnosed with ASD at age 8 and had never had a vaccine ever.
With my other dcs although they were lucky and didn’t catch anything they did also get diagnosed with ASD.

I had a lovely GP who I went to see one day as my reason for not vaccinating had happened anyway (autism) and then I knew that I was wrong. They devised a catch up plan and even for my child with very severe allergies they arranged for their vaccines to be done in the day unit at hospital in case of a reaction. My dc are now fully vaccinated plus extra we paid for privately (chicken pox and meningitis jabs).

I would say don’t be like me in particular whooping cough was so dangerous and awful we were lucky they didn’t get any other diseases .

I was almost hospitalised when I had measles. The GP was a family friend and he came to check on me twice a day, and would definitely have had me admitted were it not for the fact that both my parents had trained as nurses. One of my earliest memories is my DM crying with relief when I finally ate something for the first time in days. Two children in my nursery school died of measles that year.

I missed two weeks of school with German measles a few years later, and three weeks with mumps in my O-level year. And I was very ill with chicken pox at the age of 36, and subsequently had several attacks of shingles and post-herpetic neuralgia.

I find it incomprehensible that anyone would risk their child getting ill when it's so easily preventable. We'd still have polio and smallpox if everyone had thought like that.
