Need advice - Airplane trips + not vaxing?

After a lot of research and investigation DH and I have decided to delay Nao's vaccinations til age two. We are/were going to follow Schmickers schedule in this post; Alternatives to immunisations - Page 2 - Pregnancy, Birth & Baby Forums ~ BellyBelly

However due to circumstances we are moving interstate to Brisbane in a few weeks and will be in an airplane for four hours. And DH and I are worried if thats going to change her low risk factor. It's such a sealed environment for such a long period.

We are unsure of what to do, both scenarios seem to present us with risks. I was just wondering if anyone had any advice for me?

Thanks in advance.

Im not sure, do you have a pro waiting dr or MCHN nearby?

And good luck with the move. I hope we get to meet at some point (:crossfingers: for me to get brissy at the end of the year ;))

Thats a tough one - I don't think there's any real guidelines or data about whether spending time in a sealed plane really increases your exposure to airborne pathogens.

My gut instinct is that four hours is probably okay - I mean, even in an aircraft she's only going to be having really close contact with you and your DH. If it was my baby, I would do it.

Ali - that would be awesome lol.
I've got our six week check up this week and was going to broach the topic with our doctor then, but our MHCN keeps thrusting the importance of vaccination down our throats without us even hinting we didn't want them. So we've been scared to mention to her.

Schmickers - thanks. We usually book the last row if we can, and so I hope that plus sitting window seat will help. DH was mostly concerned with someone getting on the plane coughing up a lung.


Not easy decision.
