[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Right...but the point is some of the pro-vaccine rhetoric is not actually fact. Which is extremely frustrating for people who really do want to know how things work and what certain risks are.
 For instance, I just looked up rotavirus and breastfeeding.  While the vaccine must be administered by 4 months so for vaccination is doesn't really matter, it was interesting that studies show a strong protective benefit from breastfeeding - but only for the first year. Also breastfeeding right after the vaccination may make the vaccine less effective.
Many people on DCUM have recommended giving Tylenol before vaccinations to help combat soreness....that's great except Tylenol can make the vaccines less effective. Again, accurate information is vital[/quote]

Are you really going to avoid getting a vaccine because some people on DCUM told you some things that might not be quite true?  Seriously, this is the problem.  Please rely on advice from medical professionals.  I just met with my pediatrician and her advice was to get vaccinated, that it was the best we have and the benefits outweigh the risks.  She also told me (which I was happy to hear) that her practice is no longer accepting patients who demand delayed vaccination schedules for anything other than specific medical reasons such as immune deficiency.

I am sure that she would be happy to address my questions, just as your pediatrician would be happy to address yours.
