My son got his first set of vaccines, at the time I was on the fence. He had a reaction, broke out in a rash and cried/screamed a lot, took him to a doctor who said 'it has nothing to do with vaccines, they are totally safe. Give him tylenol and keep vaccinating'.
That was the last vaccine the kids got. Really, if the medical system is going to be dishonest about the whole thing, and there aren't a lot of options as far as easily getting modified vaccine schedules, then not interested. For some things, like whooping cough, my guys are too old for it to be a 'risk' anyway, for others I don't agree with giving them at all.
Both kids are healthy, minimal ear infections and other issues. Compared to some kids I know that always have ear infections and are on meds - yet doctors won't usually suggest trying a dairy free diet to see if that helps (often dairy causes swelling in the body, not enough to notice per say but enough to block the tubes and create ear infection issues). And hearing things like kids who got the chicken pox vaccine, and then RE vaccinated for chicken pox not once but in some cases three times, or having a 'weak immune system' so going for monthly vaccines like 12 in a year, gotta wonder what the medical system is thinking there.
We get the odd 'your children are due' calls and I just say 'they're allergic so not going there' and they say 'thanks'.
In my own family, every niece/nephew has been vaccinated and every one has asthma, allergies and ear infections - not like a one time thing but when they've been under 4 living on daily medication(s). So having two kids that do not have those issues I think we're doing ok.
What always kills me, same as dogs, is the people who find out my kid isn't vaccinated and panic because it'll make their vaccinated kid sick somehow....
