[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).

But since DCUM'ers don't breastfeed, they worry about this stuff.  It must suck to be that afraid of something.[/quote]

You're both wrong. It's weird, by the way, that you're exalting breast milk as the magical elixir that will save your non-vaccinating bacon, which does suggest you are that afraid of something. Me? I'm nursing my 10 month old and hoping to Jesus she isn't exposed to measles (thank you, non-vaxxers, for this trip down developing nation road no one wanted to take!) before she gets her MMR.

And to the first quoted PP: your ped was likely reassuring you that your baby received some of your immunity to measles while you were pregnant, but just like stores of iron, that runs out after a while. It isn't breast milk that will save you here.[/quote]

Well, I vaccinate, so I'm not sure what you're talking about.  I'm also quite comfortable with the antibodies that are transferred by nursing until my child can get the MMR.  Again, it must suck to be as afraid as you are.  Get a real problem.[/quote]
