I was told it meant I had a natural immunity. I have no idea if that's true or not. Mine never took either. I had to go back to the doctor and get the shot again. I ended up getting that damn shot 2 or 3 times and it never did scar up like it was supposed to. I don't know whether the doctor eventually decided I had natural immunity or if he just said fuck it, but they let me start school.

I'm not against vaccinations but doctors and pharmaceutical companies are prescribing it like vitamins. This goes for dogs as well. True. And what bothers me is that there are no studies on long-term effects of all these vaccinations. The drug companies define 'adverse reactions' as something that happens within 24 hours of getting the vaccine, so anything that happens weeks or months later "must" have some other cause. And if anyone dares question BigPharma, they say "But we eradicated polio!" and accuse you of being a kook or a moron. HepB is a good example. Why do newborns need a HepB vaccine? What are the chances of a baby getting HepB? Pretty much zero. But vaccines are massive profit centers for the drug companies -- what better scam is there than to have the government require that every American must buy your product? And what politician is going to have the balls to say "Aww, kids don't need that vaccine"?

I don't think anyone thinks that people who "question Big Pharma" are kooks. I think the people who don't get the minimal vaccinations for their children are kooks. Stuff like the flu vaccine and chicken pox vs. MMR? Not all vaccines are created equal. I don't think we should be sheeple but I also think the tinfoil hatters who won't immunize their kids against anything are total nutjobs and should be left on some filthy island somewhere. They are parasites. FWIW my kid had the chicken pox vaccine and still got the pox. Just one example of how herd immunity improves everyone's health. If everyone had the chicken pox vaccine he probably still wouldn't have gotten it. And a lot of us can say, "oh, we lived through chicken pox and we are fine". And that is certainly true. But if we had it when we were kids we probably don't remember how sick we actually were at the time. Jazzy-that is interesting. They come right out and blame it on the people who won't vaccinate.

Now we're looking into getting her the shingles shot. They only advise it for those over 65, which sucks for her.

Like all herpes viruses, varicella (chicken pox) lives in your nerves forever once you're exposed, and as someone who not only remembers having chicken pox sores in my scalp, mouth and even my vajayjay, and then years later getting shingles, let met tell you people, DO NOT GET CHICKEN POX.

I believe it was 5 vaccines in 3 shots. She was extremely sick for the next week and sickly for the next 6 months. At that point, I determined that she just wasn't strong enough for them. But last fall when she was 4, I started getting her gradually up to date on her vaccinations to prepare her for kindergarten next week. She handled it all much better when older. Even with the problems, I never considered not completing the vaccination schedule. I am always hesitant about new vaccines though. I was worried about the chicken pox vaccine when it was coming out, but my son caught it the month before the vaccine became available. By the time my daughter came along, it had 10 years of experience so I felt better about it. The pediatrician has already started talking to me about the gardasil vaccine for her when she gets older. He guilted me into immunizing my son last year against meningitis.

I don't even give Stewie all his shots at once because of his lowered tolerance.

However, I am glad that it'll be around for several years before she needs it.

Oh and I really did not need to hear anything about your vajayjay. Wasn't there a jayjay the helicopter or something for kids a few years back? i swear I think of that everytime someone mentions a vajayjay.
