| aussiemum said: | My own children aged now 2 and 1 years old were somewhat different to each other when it came to vaccinations.
I can only speak for myself here and also what I have seen as a former childcare worker-
our son was fully vaccinated for his first year. However, in this time he suffered severe conjutivitis after his 1st vaccination, his 2nd vaccination at 6 weeks cause conjunctivitis AGAIN and a minor- moderate flu symptoms- with his 4 month vaccination (the same vaccination as the 2nd vaccination-2 month vaccination) he ended up in hospital for a whole week hooked up to tubes fighting to survive with Bronchiolitis apparently the result of the vaccination but supposedly chances of this happening are low- though do happen. Since then has had asthma caused by the bronchiolitis and also got bronchiolits 6 more times by the end of his first year- he had a bad immune system also. We didnt take him to have anymore vaccinations after his 12 month shot and his immune system has picked up BIG TIME, he is a healthy happy boy and his asthma is now almost non-existant. Our 2nd child had her in hospital vaccination which made her EXTREMLY irritable and fussy- she would SCREAM almost 24/7 and she would rarely sleep unless she was with us- this caused some difficulty as you can imagine- we sought help and were told she was a high dependancy baby who will eventually grow out of it but babies like her usually can be un-consollable and its best to either sleep in her room with her or have her in our room with us because no amount of sleep training would solve the issue- apparently babies with such issue usually have to GROW out of it. She did by the age of about 4-5 months and was in her own cot in her own room sleeping through the night.
Then by her 2 month vaccination (2nd vaccination) she had this and went from perfectly healthy to in hospital having mucas cleared from her airways so she could breath within 24 hours of her vaccination (the same one our son got bad flu like symptoms with and then bronchiolitis with the 4 month one) .
So we didnt take her to have another vaccination.
And you know what she has had only 2 vaccinations out of the several within the first year and she is the HEALTHIEST person in our house even our family (that includes our parents and siblings who are fully vaccinated- yet despite vaccination managed to catch things like whooping cough) she rarely gets anything and when she does she has it for 24-48 hours and its gone just like that. Her 12 month health check and my sons 2 year health check(both NOT UP TO DATE with vaccinations and are NOT HAVING THEM) are in perfect health- developing perfectly in fact the are ABOVE average including my daughter (who ONLY had the 2 vaccinations) who is also HUGELY above average in height and weight for her age- already close to the size of her brother who is also slightly above average in size and he is 13 months (over a year) older than her.
We have also been exposed to things like whooping cough (by vaccinated people mind you) etc where the moment we found out about the exposure we got antibiotics straight away and then quarantined ourselves for the incubation and contagious periods but so far no dramas at all.
So nothing bad for us so far from stopping vaccination if anything BIG improvements on all boards.
On my experience as a former childcare worker with 5years experience in the industry I have NEVER worked in a centre that had a child that was not vaccinated or not up to date with vaccinations yet children at the centres still managed to get and spread these vaccination preventable diseases amongst other things despite good hygiene practices done by the centres and also proper exclusion periods in place.
Good luck though |
Dear Aussie Mum,
Have you reported all these adverse events to any authority? Each state must collect this information.
If you get fobbed off, and even if you don’t, make sure you contact Meryl Dorey of Australian Vaccination Network, Old Byron Bay Road, Newrybar, NSW, 2479, phone (02) 6687 1699 as her organisation collects such information. It helps to keep the health authorities up to the mark, and honest (if that is possible). I just tried to google the website address and instead got the first four pages of anti-AVN propaganda. and stop the AVN campaigns
They must be winning in the fight for informed decision-making and the right to choose or refuse vaccination. They were taken to court and won the case on being able to continue their work. It is extremely important that they are supported.
After a very difficult search, I have found their website. I strongly suggest you save it in your favourites because it’s hard to get otherwise. Looks they they are under attack from all sides. Here it is: http://www.www.avn.org.au/
