Getting Shots for your baby
Posts: 13
Hello:
I was just wondering how everyone else is getting shots for their babies. It has been a little while since I had my first daughter and I have people telling me now to spread the shots out more and not get them like I did my first daughter, and then other people telling me not to get shots at all, just wondering what other mothers are doing and think. Things have sure changed in 10 years since I had my first. Thanks for any advise. Joy

I know so much what you are talking about. I have a 15 year old and a 1 year old. I was confused about this topic also. My best friend has 2 children with Autism. She did the "shots" like we are all suppose to and I have to say that I was disturbed by the results for her.
I have been very cautions with getting my yougest son shots. I do space them apart, plus I have spoken to my doctor about this very concern.
If you have any other questions please pm me.

Go to the CDC and read as much as you can. Get statistical FACTS. Ask your doctor concrete questions. There are no links to autism yet, but not many places will explicitly give any answers to the questions you have. It is better to be safe than sorry. Lynn
