Amber - after about 6 months the iron supplies babies get through breast milk start to dry up, that is why they fortify rice cereal (like farex) with iron. But there are pleanty of other foods rich in iron, like prunes for example! You don't 'have' to give Myles farex at all if you don't want to. If you do give him rice cereal, just be aware that it can cause constipation, so perhaps mix a little prune juice with it or just make sure he has lots of fluids as well.

Willow- In brief: The MMR vaccine 'had' been linked to Autism, although, the Dr who first made this claim has now said he falsified the results and the claim has been discredited. Even though there is no concrete evidence to prove this claim, many parents swear that the vaccine caused their childs Autism. However, it is a complex argument, and it is difficult to get non inflamatory info. There is lots of info out there, including a few threads on here.
There is also the pattern of thought that one immunisation at a time is more gentle on babies immune system.
Oh and one other thing, many people believe that some of the immunisations are not necessary...... but you need to do a bit of reading and decide what is best for you guys.
