Choosing not to vaccinate???
DS had his 2 mth vaccination last week and I have to say since then his reaction to the needles and the research I have since done have me wondering if we will continue to have his vaccinations done.
DS had a strong reaction to the shots with a temp for 3 days, vomiting, diarrhea, lots of screaming, lack of appetite, problems settling and few more. They lasted from 24 to 72 hours. Since then life has been all over the place. He has developed a really high pitched scream since them which he uses throughout the day. He stresses if we are out of his sight, hates being held now accept if he is really tired. Has had a constant problem with nasal congestion since then. We though it was a cold at first but there has been little improvement despite using Baby Balm, steam, a humidifier and Fess for kids. We give him warm baths and massage to help him settle but this does not really worked the way it did before his shots. We are at a loss our happy, calm bright eyed eyed boy has been an unsettled terror and it all began the arvo of the day he had his shots. It just feels too much to be a coincidence.
Since then I have also read a lot about what exactly goes into vaccines and the less the perfect guarantee rate they really have. Im a bit nervous about it all.
I am really interested in hearing from others who have had reactions to vaccinations and those who have chosen not to vaccinate. Please do not respond with criticism or negative feedback I am just trying to make an informed choice for my son plus my step brother is a senior pathologist studying medicine so I am well aware of the argument for vaccinating.
