I've been looking at immunisations and I think I've made a decision regarding them, but I was interested in what other people have done/are going to do.
I have decided that I am going to delay many of the immunisations until I have stopped breastfeeding. The reason for this is that when breastfeeding the baby gets the mum's immunity through the milk. I'm also going to delay ones such as the MMR as I will be home educating my child so it will not be going to nursery or school, which means that it's risks of catching something would be greatly reduced. I also believe that many childhood illnesses are better caught as a child than as and adult once the immumity has worn off.
Those are my beliefs, I'd love to know what other people believe.
