I feel a bit "bad mummy" here because I vaccinate DS too.

But I figure... would I rather him get the disease? Nah. The autism/MMR link is there ONLY if there is a genetic history of autism in the family, for some reason the MMR can spark some dormant gene. So for DS, while we knew it would make his eczema worse for a month, we figured that was better than him getting one of the bugs. It is a personal choice though and we can't tell people off for the decision they make. (Sadly in some cases...)

Your local GP will have LOADS of pro-vaccination leaflets, but that's more propaganda again. You just have to go with what you feel is right. And be as informed as you can when you make the choice. There are heavy metals in the vaccinations and that's not great, but you have to do risk analysis on it. Just like crossing the road or driving a car or cooking the dinner - know the risk and pick what you know is the minimum risk option.
