Vaccination is a big, big question these days, with proponents and opponents standing firmly on either side of the fence. And yet, this is perhaps one of the most important questions to the parent of a baby. If I choose to vaccinate, do I follow the CDC schedule (which many contend is over-vaccinating our children) or some alternate plan? If I choose not to vaccinate, will I be able to find a pediatrician who will understand my decision, and what about all those scary childhood diseases--what if my child contracts one?
It would never be my place to make any suggestion as to what a parent should choose; however, let me point you towards the resources that helped my husband and I make our own decision, based upon a combination of sound research and gut instincts:
Valuable Books, one on each side of the spectrum:
The Vaccination Book, Making the Right Decision for Your Child--Robert Sears
The Vaccine Guide: Risks and Benefits for Children and Adults--Randall Neustaedter
Doctor's Websites, once again on both sides of the issue:
Dr. Sears
Dr. Mercola
Valuable Websites for information:
National Vaccine Information Center
Generation Rescue
Homeopathic Kits for Pre and Post Vaccination:
Elixirs.com
Hope these resources helps as you make this important decision for your child!
