Guest guest Posted July 27, 2000 Report Share Posted July 27, 2000 No pitocin and I even turned down the epidural but did get a little stadol. I suspect a knock-me-down viral illness at two months post-conception and/or diarrheal bug that I got the weekend our son was conceived. Add that to a history od dad's milk and wheat allergies, and other genetic possibilities.

Guest guest Posted July 30, 2000 Report Share Posted July 30, 2000 I just read Athena's E mail on Pitocin and MMR. I also was given Pitocin for my son's delivery and guess what Kenny is autistic. 1985 in college, I was given MMR because god forbid you get pregnant and aren't vaccinated. Also after college probably 1990 I was given another MMR because my GYN just wanted to make sure. I also received Stadol for both my deliveries, " to help me relax " , my daughter has a speech and language delay. Any thoughts on Stadol use? Coincidence that Kenny's autism, picky eating and diarrhea popped up after the MMR shot at 15 months. Ezzie Klein --- KNIC@...> wrote: > Dear and Geri, > > I had Pitocin with both my boys(ages 3&5).

Guest guest Posted July 31, 2000 Report Share Posted July 31, 2000 Was Stadol a muscle relaxant? a shot? I had a mystery shot that I can't find on my records, I wonder if that was it? When was Kenny born? Heidi Re: Help Pitocin induced labors ...Did you have this Yes or No? > I just read Athena's E mail on Pitocin and MMR.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2000 Report Share Posted August 6, 2000 Considering only 20% of parents giving birth recieve pitocin..and 60% of autistic children's parents recieved..pitocin..this group needs more responses from mothers who havent'.(or have) Please respond one way or another...As it is I've recieved 17 responses..15 of our group with spectrum children recieved pitocin..2 haven't..I believe there are 35 more parents out there who have not yet responded.. If you could I would appreciate it.. Thank you Geri and Brown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 6, 2000 Report Share Posted August 6, 2000 Hi ...welcome home...I was also given pitocin with ph (autistic) and (NT). You mention Dylan was breech, so was ph at one point and the umbilical cord was twice around ph's neck when he was born. In homeopathic terms, the cord being twice around his neck might have been an " insult " triggering the autism.
