We've decided to try to have more children and just realized our attempts were successful.
My oldest are 9, 11 and 12 and they got whatever the recommended childhood vaccinations are (mumps, measles, etc). I'm unaware of any issues the previous vaccinations may have caused, they have always been healthy.
After what has happened, I'm aware and concerned about all vaccinations. Is the general consensus here that all vaccinations are potentially dangerous? Can we safely avoid all vaccinations of any kind, including the common childhood vaccines?
Which disease did they catch being unvaccinated?
Measles and polio. A case of measles that caused permanent hearing loss and another was a woman who caught it while pregnant who was unvaccinated and her daughter has struggled horrendously all of her life (physical therapy, cognitive issues). Polio was a paralysis case born outside the US. That's just the ones I can think of off the top of my head.
