MMR

[Natasha2605]

Summer had the MMR at 14 months. I don't believe it causes Autism and in general I am all for vaccinations. Respect parents decision delaying them though as we delayed Summer's 2 months, but I am not so for parents who do not vaccinate at all . jmo

The vaccine that is causing all these adverse side effects?? That depends on if you believe in herd immunity or not, I don't. Herd immunitt is a theory, not a fact. These are facts. I think the MMR is doing the opposite of protecting your child from harm, if it kills them!

There were ZERO deaths from mumps.

Maybe, but should i in future have a son, decide not to vaccinate and have him catch mumps and become infertile i would never forgive myself because i would be to blame.

Could you forgive yourself if your child had adverse side effects from the vaccine itself? The odds of having side effects is higher rhan any damage odne by mumps...

I could, because i know at the time of making this decision i believe i am doing it for my daughters well being, i believe it is the best course of action i honestly do.

I can assure you (talking from personal experiance) you would NEVER forgive yourself if either went wrong

Maybe but at the moment, that is honestly how i feel. I hope i never have to expierence it the way you have

thats understandable, and exactly how i used to feel.
everyone needs to decide what is right for them and their child

karinna got her MMR vaccine. I think its irresponsible to not vaccinate your children. I don't want karinna going to school with kids that don't get vaccinated and might be carrying something. I think the risk of getting a disease is MUCH higher if you don't vaccinate, then the risk of getting autism from a vaccine.

not saying if you don't vaccinate your a bad mom, its everyone's personal preference. i just think that doctors aren't going to give your child a vaccine thats going to hurt them.

NO! Why would I think that you would be happy your child has autism? That's not what I'm saying!!

This thread wasn't even started to be a debate, otherwise it would be in the debates section of the forum. OP was purely asking who gave MMR and who didn't. Not WHY you're not giving or WHY you did give. etc etc. My child WON'T be affected by a bad vaccine because that is purely fictional. Vaccines don't cause autism. That's a MYTH.

 

[stephx]

Avas having all her vaccines, end of.

Very irresponsible not getting them done IMO

 

[~RedLily~]

I am very pro vaccine but I wouldn't say it is irresponsible not to. I know a few people on here have done so much research (a lot more than me) and made the decision not to vaccinate. It isn't an easy decision to make because they know exactly what it is for so what the risks may be but they have their own reasons. I think that should be respected.

One of the biggest scares of the MMR vaccine is the link to autism. Which is why I'm saying. You're hanging around this thread, waiting for someone to say "I'm giving my child the MMR vaccine because......." and then you bring in your story of why you shouldn't vaccinate. I never said your child has autism. MMR vaccines do have side effects but so do mumps, measles and rubella. The chances of getting a reaction from the MMR vaccine is so unlikely compared to how common it could be to get measles, mumps or rubella.

Unlike you, I'm not going to sit around on this thread waiting for people to respond so I can debate with them. I'm done. I just wanted to inform you, that you've said your story a billion times.

 

[ticking.clock]

actually the OP asked who would and wouldn't and i said no
i was asked why so i reposnded

whatever anyone else does it does not impact my children i was only explaining our expierences

i am PRO choice, and advise to ask for a full medical before vaccines are given


not rocket science is it

Well, this thread was going well. There were many ladies discussing it rationally and respectful. I was pleased to see it. Shame on all of you ladies who decide to shit all over others for their beliefs, when both sides are valid. Tickingclock has been nothing but kind, helpful, and full of information. Just because it isn't to your taste doesn't mean anything.

i dont think anyone was shitting all over other peoples beliefs we've all ask the people why the wont get vaccinated and why they will but when someones said there story a billion time people might see it as pushy and that what there doing is wrong.

 

[hot tea]

Then those people are a tad to sensitive. If people are actually confident in their beliefs they really shouldn't get so angry when others disagree. Nonvaccing parents get so much shit from people who haven't even properly educated themselves on statistics. I could bang my head against a wall and shove the same information, proven FACTS, government statistics proving that there is more risk in vaccinations themselves than the diseases, that there is no FACTUAL PROOF stating vaccinations lower the odds of catching diseases at all when they are introduced upon the decline... And all I will get is a "derp-de-durrrr well the doctor told me sooooo, btw you are threatening everyone elses children withyour choices."

It is usually the people who follow like sheep to the slaughter that get their knickers in a snit in the first place, with us who choose a more natural route. I can taste the sarcasm from some posts.

 

[cabbagebaby]

i dont see anyone getting angry at other peoples beliefs .if there was more risk in vaccinating than not vaccinating then there wouldnt be a need for vaccinations , no one has said that vaccinating will stop them from catching the disease but it will help them fight it off better because there immune system is more able to cope with it because the body has already been prepared for if the child catches the disease .

i dont think any off us are like sheep were doing what we think is best for are child and what is recommened. just because we dont choose the more natural route it does not make us sheep followers. i can also taste the sarcasm from you post because im not following the "natural route'

 

[mayb_baby]

I will be vaccinating my son simply because I don't believe the NHS and other medical authorities would advice and provide them if they weren't needed

 

[Jemma0717]

Hey ladies...remember...to each their own. Let's stay mature as this is a very sensitive subject. It's not nice to call anyone irresponsible for their beliefs.....I DO vaccinate my son but I would never criticize anyone who decided not to.

 

[hot tea]

Exactly, I was reffering to those who called nonvaccing parents irresponsible. That is disrespectful, whatever way yo paint it. I have been incredibly respectful, participating in this thread. I am just tired of not being treated the same way by some users. Also... i am just tired.

OT sort of, but 2 of my uncles got the mumps as kids and now both are infertile
