My wife declined the Hepatitis B vaccine for my newborn. We argued about it. I’m scared to death of making the wrong decision. I’m asking for help, what do you guys think is appropriate for newborn vaccines? The nurse came to our house and told us if we didn’t get the vaccines they wouldn’t work with us anymore. I brought up autism and she said that the person who came out with that lost their medical license and there are ZERO negative side effects for the Hep B vax. Exact words.
It was a long and hard pregnancy. My wife has had trauma in her past and refused any meds (which I was conflicted about because it was a nightmare to live through) and now she may be suffering from post-partem depression. She is way more anti-vax than I am, hates hospitals and doctors after what has happened, and I can’t blame her. Any thoughts or advice would be very much appreciated.
Yes! Say No to all vaccines. There is no reasom to give a Hep shot to a healthy baby unless the mom shares needles or is a prostitute..You can consider the Vitamin K shot (not a vax) bc it helps with blood clotting in the event of internal bleeding due to trauma. You have to decide on the risk versus the benefits. Do your research on the vaccines and wait. You can always go back later and give them but you will never reverse the damage caused by them. This is a great book to read or listen to on audible. Vaccine Epidemic https://a.co/d/8KpwNqm. I know it can feel super scary and the nurses, docs, pediatricians, other parents and family members will try to scare you. It's ok, you will know what's best for your child. Congratulations! Enjoy your new babe and family.
