Guest guest Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 YES! My Aspergers 15 yo - and it was very long for a 6 lb second baby - over 16 hours. She was slightly jaundiced. The Autistic child who is 6 had a very traumatic birth. She was too big - the labor was around 12 hours, pitocin was used, and she was "stuck" in the birth canal for around 45 minutes and had the cord wrapped around her neck.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 No pitocin. Son with HFA. However, I was on Terbutaline for 2.5 months because I went into labor with him 2.5 months early. Oh, and then there was the bleeding before I went into labor - placenta previa.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 yes I had pitocin in both of my ds's one is AS and the other is PDD but there is also a theory about blood types that more parents seem to be A & O combinations because I have talked to tons of people that used pitocin and no spectrum stuff but maybe it sets up something for later. look into to the blood type combinations that has something too Greta Culp, MFT wrote: > > Please contact me if pitocin was used in labor during birth. > > If there were any other birth complications, please let me know. > Thanks so much > > MCulp@... > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Any questions?

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 I guess I could reply. For my child who is high functioning autistic--there was NO pitocin, no drugs--all natural. For my daughter who had HLHS (which we knew about before her birth) there was pitocin because I was induced so that she could be born at a particular hospital but NO other drugs because I refused them.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 ok i was wondering sort of like the mercury theory i dont agree with all of that one either like i said i had 4 kids the first 3 had pitocion the last didnt the one who had the worst labor dont have any problems( just remedial and that was nothing really he is an honor roll student and not one learning diability present )i think a lot of the rise is do to broadening of the spectrum and a mixture of genetics and environment that play into the disorders .if u think about the pitocin and the mercury theory if that was the case there would be a higher rate i would think of the cases than there are .but there isnt .it may just be everything coming together genetics envirnment just coming to gether Re: Pitocin and AS >>This particular theory has been bouncing around for at least 14years.

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 I have found that several other moms I have met in the autism community also had Rhogam shots during their pregnancy. These shots are due to the mom's blood being being Rh negative and Dad being Rh positive. If you're Rh-negative and carrying a baby who is Rh-positive (like the baby's father), your immune system, which fights off invaders to keep you healthy, will recognize your baby's Rh-positive red blood cells as foreign to your Rh-negative blood and may begin producing antibodies intended to destroy your baby's blood cells. I learned that it was late in the 80s when they started administering this around 28 weeks. It did contain mercury. (Interesting considering the rise in ASD around that time) They do have mercury free ones now. This is likely just another culprit in upping the mercury levels in our children. And this shot is one that many parents " forget " about when looking at the vaccination history of their children. Mom gets another shot post partum. I suppose there is a risk of the mercury in breast milk but I don't know how much risk. Truly frustrating part... " if this is your first pregnancy, chances are everything will be fine. These crusading antibodies usually are not dangerous until subsequent pregnancies, when they've had time to grow in strength and number. " Got that from RhoGAM.com site. My firstborn has Autism...and I was given the shot at 28 weeks as standard procedure. Even though the risk was more for subsequent pregnancies. I didn't even need the shot that first pregnancy! Anyway, wanted to add that to the blood type discussion. > > > > Please contact me if pitocin was used in labor during birth. > > > > If there were any other birth complications, please let me know. > > Thanks so much > > > > MCulp@... > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Any questions?

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 I had pitocin (tons of it!) for both of my labors. My oldest is a very normal child, average in most everything. I was induced for her because I had pre-eclampsia. My youngest was induced 3 days after due date because I had Gestational Diabetes. He shows signs of aspergers. Given the choice, I'd be induced again. Any longer and he may have been stillborn. Other methods were tried to induce labor first, but my kiddos were stubborn about coming out. No other drugs were used during labor. -Colleen Re: Pitocin and AS I have found that several other moms I have met in the autismcommunity also had Rhogam shots during their pregnancy.

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 I don't know about the Pitocin thing, but I can tell you that Hope went from slightly delayed to regressing horrifically post vaccine. Now, obviously I know that not all children are affected by this, but I lived overseas and had about twice as many vaccines as "normal" children, thus I would not rule out that I am toxic with heavy metals.

Guest guest Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 Hi, Three of my children were induced with pitocin. AS son, difficult delivery, short labor, blue when he was born. Second daughter, ADHD, questioning misdiagnosis due to oldest son late diagnosis. Third baby has down syndrome. My last son is being tested for PDD but was not induced. But I did have the RH factor shots for each of my pregnancies. Tiara" Culp, MFT" <laurenmculp@...> wrote: Please contact me if pitocin was used in labor during birth.

Guest guest Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 I found out I was pregnant in the spring of 1994. In my fourth month I had some bleeding and some back problems. At 26 weeks I went into pre-mature labor, labor was stopped and I was placed on bed rest. I experienced high blood pressure beginning in my third trimester and I was told strict bed-rest and to lay on my left side. Due to cocern over my b.p. I was induced at 37 weeks. I was given pitocin and after a while my membranes were ruptured. My labor lasted a little over eight hours. I found the labor to be very very painful. I was given Stadol(sp?) to take the edge off. Pushing lasted for two hours one of those hours there was no progress made (the baby was stuck). I had to get up on all fours in order to help the baby turn through the birth canal. My son was born a whopping 5lbs 6 ounces with a lopsided cone head from where he was stuck. Other than that he was perfectly beautiful. He had low blood sugars shortly after his birth and was given something like sugar water to help. I breast fed my son for two years. He was diagnosed with many things over the years. Two years ago he was diagnosed as Aspergers, LD- NOS, with associated ADHD and OCD symptoms. Today is his twelth birthday. I became pregnant with my daughter in 1996. I had a fairly normal pregnancy with her. I did start to have some elevated b.p.'s in the last trimester and she was found to have some intrauterine growth retardation. I was again induced at 37 weeks with pitocin and my membranes were ruptured. I had an epidural this time...woo-hoo! My daughter was born after a 4 1/2 hr labor weighing in at a whopping 4lbs 14oz. She was not breathing and it took the doctors a couple of minutes to get her going. Those were the longest minutes of my life. She was totaly gorgeous and still is. She is in fourth grade and perfectly fine. ~Jeanette I found these links. http://www.autismtoday.com/articles/ATTN_Researchers.htm http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0838/is_2001_March-April/ai_76587472 http://www.emaxhealth.com/37/8501.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 The mothers body produces pitocin when in labor. The baby also needs this hormone when in the labor. Babies who are born C-Section don't get this hormone. I had Pit with 3 of my babies. The one I didn't was my child with AS. I'd like to see studies that show pit contributes to AS. I work specializing in Biofeedback Therapy for AS clients. I've found its something in the DNA. When I work on repairing DNA and Teliomere DNA I have good results.

Guest guest Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 Hi Jen, We have always been suspicious of the DPT shot also that my son Marty got at around two years old, it was a booster to the first three rounds of them. Anyway one day he just went stiff while eating breakfast, a month or so later. Was fine until then, talked a little, knew some numbers, and letters, played with his two older brothers, laughed and played, and was fine. After that he went down hill, had to go on anticonvulsants that only seemed to make him worse, lost his ability to talk, was all drugged up, and STILL had the seizures. I read once where the P in the shot, for Pertussis, whooping cough can cause seizures that NOTHING will ever help. That's him. Anyway I notice now before babies have their shots they have the parents read up on the possible side affects, one of them being seizures and permanent brain damage. They didn't give us anything to read then, he was born in 1964. Anyway my other three kids were all vaccinated and all of my grandkids have been also, all six, we figured they would be fine, and they are, and we don't have to worry about infectious diseases, well not the ones they were vaccinated against anyway. Oh, I have to go now. My grandson Lucas just walked up to me, and I smell he needs his diaper changed. I was such a HAPPY grandma a few minutes ago, sat him in his high chair, gave him macaroni and cheese and some peas and corn, and he ATE IT! Not all, but a LOT of it. I am so happy! When he was younger I fed him at his high chair and he ate pretty well, but once things got lumpy he had not wanted to eat much, gags a lot, throws up, etc., even though he has lots of teeth. I have been hoping that as he grew bigger the eating problem would go away. He is pretty big for age 2, tall, etc. I was thinking that someday when he is 6'4" and 230 lb. I am going to tell him what a time I had with him eating! haha Carolyn Re: Pitocin and AS >>This particular theory has been bouncing around for at least 14years. Nothing has come of it.

Guest guest Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 The DPT is the one that really frightens me as well. I won't get into my cover up and conspiracy theories . I know that if I were blessed by more children (not likely to happen), that I would not vaccinate prior to age 3 - which is when the blood brain barrier is completed. Molly has Absent Seizures - well - we go back and forth with this one - they (the neurologists) have "seen" the seizures on the ekg (or is it eeg?) twice - however, the seizures were supposedly ruled out by a neurologist in Los Angeles that her father took her to - even though she did no tests. I really need to take her back in to have her re-tested, plus she needs to see a pain doc/ortho doc - due to serious back pain - possibly resulting from her scoliosis.

Can these vaccinations ever be okay. Have you read the ingredient lists? My sister-in-laws children had the shots and all five of them had whooping cough (pertussin), so do they prevent anything for the individual, or simply theoretically are believed to prevent an epidemic?

Guest guest Posted December 16, 2006 Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 may I ask what absent seizures are? I have heard of them but for the life of me can't think of what they are. My son has seizures too, but his are blinking and starring. And I Don't see them all the time. He sometimes has them in his sleep.

Guest guest Posted December 16, 2006 Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 Both children, C-sections. Daughter is decidedly not autistic. She has a few problems of her own, but none developmental. Son, HFA, and doing much better now.
