My only...You know your son and you do what is best. My only advice when it comes to vaccinations is if you are planning on traveling out of country I would encourage it. <br />But, you have nothing to feel guilty about. He is a great kid and when they are that little you never quite know what it is they are getting, they catch everything.Ganinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04509481688170239125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-99899989634240238.post-67138151658201763962010-08-10T16:21:37.538-06:002010-08-10T16:21:37.538-06:00I am assuming you know that River is beyond handso...I am assuming you know that River is beyond handsome right?<br /><br />And because you can't assume this: thank you so much for this post. A mother who prays and listens to the spirit for what is best for HER child is the kind of mother I hope to be. Thank you for your example.C.

Poor little candybar. Now it thinks no one loves it. :( That's why I usually end up eating candybars in twos.<br /><br />On a more serious note, you guys did a whole lot of research and praying and made the best decision you could possibly have made. The people that should feel guilty are the people (on either side) that don't put any thought into it and simply do whatever the prevailing feeling is in their community/social group/whatever.<br /><br />Well, even they don't really need to feel guilty. They should probably just be a little bit more proactive when it comes to their babies.Jessica Fields Rudderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15704016684243398175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-99899989634240238.post-12355476547544566392010-08-10T13:09:12.912-06:002010-08-10T13:09:12.912-06:00It's heartbreaking to see your little one sick...It's heartbreaking to see your little one sick, especially at an age when he can't verbally express himself. <br /><br />Put the mother's guilt to rest. Obviously I'm on the other side of the vaccination debate, but I 100% respect the parents' right to choose for their own children. You know what's best for your baby and I can tell all the way up North that you're an amazing mama.<br /><br />As long as the side effects are relatively benign, you have nothing to worry about. Your little guy got through it like a champ and you don't have to worry about him getting that much nastier disease. Besides, as the poster before me said, teething can do much much worse to the guy.

I am far from an expert since I don't have any first hand experience, but some tell me there can be some of those same reactions to cutting teeth too, since you said he has one hiding back there. So maybe he had a double wammy. Also, being a school secretary for 20+ years leans me in the direction of immunizations being a good thing. But I know how some feel about waiving having them done and they give good arguments too. The picture of his chubby little leg with that bandaid on it made me kiss the screen of my computer on his booboo, and how about that designer bluejean diaper lol. :)susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04991954365466165788noreply@blogger.com
