The problem is that if there are others who have been exposed, and may be in the incubation stages, vaccination will certainly suppress the immune system and reduce their chances of fighting off the disease. With the Hib vaccine, it is clear that there is a " negative phase " - a period of a week or so when the blood loses its bactericidal properties. During this phase, there is an increased risk of infection both to Hib and to other bacterial diseases. Almoth , creator of the typhoid vaccine, discovered that this vaccine too caused a negative phase which lasted between weeks and months after vaccination.

Guest guest Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 , I can understand your concerns, however I would personally not want to weaken my child's immune system by giving them any kind of shot prior to a surgical procedure, no matter how small. The vaccinations will really tax your little guy's immune system, making him MORE susceptible to whatever nasties are in the hospital. And we all know how nasty most hospitals are!

I have a 5 month-old son who hasn't had any vaccines yet (I don't plan to vaccinate unless I can come up with a good reason). My question is this- he needs to have surgery- a fairly quick procedure to move his testicle into his scrotum. I'm concerned about his being in the hospital (not even overnight, just for the day) without having been vaccinated. Our pediatrician has not pushed us to vaccinate, but highly recommends the Hib and Prevnar vaccines. Of course I don't want to risk his being exposed to bacteria that cause meningitis while not vaccinated, but I'm concerned about the long-term effects of these vaccines. In particular, his grandmother has Guillan-Barre Syndrome, a potential complication of these vaccines. What do you think? Thank you for your advice! Oh- my son is exclusively breast-fed- don't know if that makes a difference. __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 Sheri B. is right, the vaccines can make him more susceptible to the nasties. YES, breastfeeding makes a difference, that, along with not being vaccinated, means that his immune system is probably pretty strong. -- Sara Find out what stinks in Genesee County! http://geneseecountystinks.blogspot.com -------------- Original message -------------- From: " Sheri B.

Guest guest Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 being exclusively breastfed basically means everything! The IgA in breastmilk prohibits the attachment of the HiB organism.....and does so for long after breastfeeding stops. I basically think all vaxxes are useless and hazardous, but aside from that, using 'thier' information, you can confidently say that HiB is unnecessary for DC Sheri B. wrote: > > , > > I can understand your concerns, however I would personally not want to > weaken my child's immune system by giving them any kind of shot prior > to a surgical procedure, no matter how small.

Guest guest Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 Breastfeeding makes a huge difference! Go to promom.com and check out the 101 Reasons to Breastfeed-- one of them references a study linking breastfeeding to protection against the hib-- what is it, a virus or bacterium?
