I did not get HepB vaccination at birth for my kids because they are at extremely low risk and i didn't see a need.

I began vaccinating my DD at a slightly delayed schedule. After the 2 month and 4 month vaccines, she was quite unwell for about a week. I discussed this with the Council run vaccine clinic nurses who showed little concern and just wanted to make sure she was given next lot of injections. The 6 month vaccines i split up, and again tried to voice my concerns with the clinic nurses. My concerns were not listened to, and i just felt there was a lot of bullying behaviour. The minimal faith that i had in the system was lost and so for now i have elected not to continue vaccinating.

If i had a medical professional that listened to me, and was willing to explore and answer my questions, i may be more likely to vaccinate.

I also believe that there are too many vaccines given at one time, and am disappointed that because single disease vaccines are not always available in Australia, parents have to choose between not vaccinating for one disease or vaccinating for 2 extras that they may not see as necessary.
