I have a great book (which I've posted about several times) that gives a wide range of " natural " treatments for pertussis as well as info on correct diagnosis.

" We got our copy from our local food co-op; if you can't find it anywhere (and are still searching for info) I could scan the pertussis section and email it to you tomorrow. Let me know. Namaste, Gretchen >> Thanks Gretchen.I did save one of your posts regarding this book I just never got around to looking for it,because I am so busy looking into ovarian cancer treatments.It is not to bad yet.Just a few times a night she starts coughing and choking for a few minutes,cries a little,bf's,and then back to sleep.I have only given echinacea.I do have the SM book so will read that pertussis section again.I suppose I should prepare myself for the worst,but I am hoping it is just a cold or maybe even carpet fumes. We'll see. I guess I am always looking for positive stories as I tend to worry more than most about these diseases.Hey I admit it- I am a wimp,and am ever second guessing my ability to assist my dd through these illnesses,as others around me look on disapprovingly,lol.I will look for that book though.It sounds like a good one to have on hand.My library might even have it!

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2001 Report Share Posted January 4, 2001 Just looked, can't find anything specific. The letters that were written in were in the Letters To The Editor page. If you go the main page, www.mothering.com , and go to Recent Articles, at the bottom is a list of various vaccine topics. Also, it looks as if they plan to put all of the current articles online soon. There is also a worthwile multi-page letter from Dr. Incao in response to the " Mother, antroplologist and public healthcare professional " who wrote in with a lot of misinformation. She is also one of those ones who held babies dying of " insert list of diseases " . If anyone is interested, I can try to copy the letter.

Guest guest Posted January 5, 2001 Report Share Posted January 5, 2001 Sara, You can definately handle your Nimet having whooping cough (if she does have it)! You had her at home, unassisted! You're an amazing woman with intelligence! You research and deliver! Don't panic, I know you live with your mom who is always against your decisions, but, you're the right one! She's just mainstream! Don't let negativity swoon in on you and devour you! According to Dr. Menhleson (forgot how to spell his name... " How to have a healthy child in spite of your dr. " dude), whooping cough can be tragic in infants because it can cause them to cough so violently it can break a rib or something.... otherwise, it runs its course and you can lifetime immunity! You're awesome and you're doing awesome for Nimet! Alison La.
