Guest guest Posted September 19, 2008 Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 Hi everyone  Is it just me or has pregnancy and childbirth become a long list of reasons for doctors to give us more drugs and shots than ever before. I am in Australia and have a big gap in ages of my children. My oldest son is almost 20 and my youngest daughter is about to turn 2. When I had my first the most I took or was prescribed was Iron supplements by the time I had my daughter they had a list of recommended stuff to take. Needless to say I took none. But it amazes me how many first time mums ran off to get these scripts done like there life and that of there unborn baby depended on it. My mum having my youngest sibling was offered nothing at all and told see you in 9 months basically.  > -I wonder why I had to have it then because my daughter is my first > and so far only child and I had the Rhogam at 7 months. > I have long been convinced that it was Rhogam and the flu shot both > containing thimerisol that gave my daughter autism. > I had a miscarriage in March and had to have the Rhogam twice but at > least I was able to get thimerisol free (I had to pay out of pocket > as insurance only covers the mercury preserved injection)but it is > still loaded with aluminum so I have been chelating with Malic Acid. > I want to have another baby and worry on the subject of Rhogam. > You can't not have it if you are RH - right?
