Nic - look after yourself. so glad you were near a drs when it happened. will keep praying for you guys.

Ella just rolled from tummy to back this morning. maybe it's a fluke, but I'm still excited. Of course she wouldn't do a repeat performance so I could video

I'm going ahead with the immunisations, altho will be cautious with MMR as we have autism in our family. Nurse said the reactions are getting less these days as the carriers are safer. Also we looked at a display in the british museum about the research linking autism & MMR & when it was analysed properly there was no link found. However, I'm going to opt to give her the shots separately rather than all at once.

having a happy day here - just managed to get ella back to sleep after a sleep cycle. yesterday tried getting her up each time she woke. bad idea - grumpypants. back to plan a! (Long naps)

Hope you all have a good day. we're off to lunch with mothers' group.

Jus, given that you already have an Autism link in your family I would be really hesitant on the MMR. You can delay it until she is 2 or 3. Might be a better option. I posted a thread a couple of weeks back where these is a case going ahead in America of an Autistic person sueing for the vaccination. They are finally admitting that yes there is a link. Not trying to change your mind hun. Just letting you know.
Government concedes Vaccine

YAY for Ella rolling over too. CLever girl

Lauren, wow you must have super booby juice happening hun. WTG Ash.

Morgan, I will PM you soon hun.

Abbey is still in bed. She woke early for a feed and went back to sleep. I have been up with Tehya since 6am though. Abbey did wake briefly earlier. I thought I will go to the loo then come out and get her but by the time I got there she was back fast asleep.

I am soooooo over these school holidays. Although with Abbey's new found love of sleeping in it's going to be hard for her getting up early next week.

Hey Trish,
Thanks for the information - very interesting and different to what had been out there before. I'll try to look into it more.
Mercury no longer used in Australia, but what about the other dangerous ingredients?
Why is it any safer at 2-3 years?
Can you get testing done for the Mitochondrial risk?
If you know where else I can look for info, I'd love that!
Thanks

[Trish]

Jus, I will PM you the same things that I sent the other girls.
There is testing for Mitochondrial disease as such, but I don't think there is one they will do before the illness makes itself present, if you get what I mean.

The thought of having it done later is that the brain is more mature at this age. Also at such a young age, unless you are in contact with infected people, how is your baby going to catch Hep B ? It's spread by bodily fluids.
If you really knew of some of the ingredients, you would shudder. I will have to send you the link I read today. It was shocking.

Ash is too cute Lauren. I just love little boys, they are soooo sweet

Abbey has been spewing a bit today. It is always so full of phlegm, her chest is shocking atm. Atleast she is getting it up though.

Must go, Underbelly is starting
