the chickenpox vaccine is the one vaccine dd will not be getting....
i agree, chickenpox in the young is not a big deal, i mean we all had it right?? if dd doesn't contract it by the time she is going to highschool then i plan to get her vaccinated then.... as from my understanding chickenpox gets worse the older you are.
the vaccine is relatively new and has not been extensively researched, i read in another thread on this site there is risk of causing brain inflammation, amongst other things...
for me i just don't see the point in vaccinating against something that i've had myself and isn't really a big risk to health if she got it....
horses for courses, everyone should do their own research and work out whats best for them.
