[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An infant that is being breastfed receives whatever immunities his or her mother has, so babies actually can have some protection before they are vaccinated. One of my children was born during a measles outbreak and the doctor was very reassuring that my baby had a lot of protection through my immunities (which had been checked during pregnancy).

All babies receive congenital immunities. However, I wouldn't be comfortable relying on that to protect my baby. [/quote]

There is a sad story in the autobiography of Jessica Mitford about her baby who died from measles in the 1930s. The public health nurse told her not to worry, because breastfeeding conferred immunity from the mother, but she'd never had measles, so there was no immunity to confer...

Herd immunity is good for everybody.[/quote]

There are lots of sad stories this decade of kids hurt or that have died due to vaccines.
