We spaced because Tyler reacts strongly to vaxs. High temp for over 4 days and G-R-O-U-C-H-Y...for at least a week.

I would like to hold off the MMR till he's a little older. He got his first flu shot on Tuesday and we are still dealing with the fall out. It stinks. The one and only time he had all his vaxes together (2 month appointment I think) he was miserable for a week. He does a little better when we space.

I don't understand why people point to vaccination as the cause to autism and not to the millions of other chemicals that are around us and in us everyday. I'd love to see the "march" on household chemicals come as far as the march against vaccinations. Auto immune diseases are all on the rise too...it's almost impossible to know what causes those.

I have searched and searched for a study on children who are not vaxed and their rates for illness vs children who are vaxed. More than just autism though...anyone know where I could find one?

Supa, you are right, it's all scarey. All you can do is the best you can.
