Good on you! I think we all need to question our doctors sometimes to make sure we understand what treatment we are having, and *why* we are having it.  I will certainly be questioning mine on vaccinations when we get to that stage. Sadly at the moment we are asking questions about infertility tests, already IVF is being pushed upon us! It takes some guts to push through the 'niceties' like you say, but the outcome is often informative. It would be interesting to hear what your daughter opts for, if any, and when. Best of luck with the new addition to your family!

I am glad to hear that you pushed on with your questions.
It is sad that a health care provider can not freely give their true opinions and experiences about vaccines.

I'm sure that it was a good thing for your daughter-in-law to see that a professional in the field had reservations about the number of vaccines being pushed at early ages.

The child will be shocked when penetrates skin.

Thank you for sharing this information with us, it definitely reaffirms some of the things I was already thinking...

> ...the fear that is placed upon the people in all kinds of authority. If we don't do what we are taught we could be held legally liable. So in other words shut our opinion off and cram into innocent people the things that the government has told us to do or lose your job.

Man, I sure wish people en masse would stop following orders!

@jolly-homestead I recommend you read these three posts from me about vaccines. It could give you a lot more information, and backed with scientific papers (with links).

If you want to follow me I'll keep posting about the subject.

I grew up not vaccinated and so did my daughter.  I am very thankful we got away with it.  Now it seems to be much more taboo to be an anti vaxxer.

I am glad to see that you pushed it, to many are scared to make waves and instead live with the results of not being firm in your own health care...We live in these bodies and no dr knows it better than we do..

What a great story, and actually I know exactly what you mean about the mask because my brother is an RN and has to wear it for months out of the year for refusing the shot. His wife on the other hand gets the shot, even though she would prefer not to, for the reasons you stated. That's not to say my brother has less of a problem with the impersonable aspect of it, he absolutely hates it. Especially last year when they announced that the flu shot given out that year was not going to work because the flu had mutated, and yet he was still forced to wear the mask until flu season was officially over, tell me how that makes sense? It doesn't of course.  
Every year, for the past three that my brother has put his foot down, at the end of the flu season they have a party for him at work called the Unmasking of Ed.  

Anyway, I would be grateful for that midwife as well :)

Heh...you would not have had to work to get my midwife talking. She will talk an ear off on this subject. I'm glad this one was willing to be honest with you and I would also consider it a good sign that you have someone you can work with if you want to truthfully consider options in a crisis birth situation. Honesty is so important!

Good on ya for questioning the authorities. Sadly the medical industry has been turned into a cash cow and it's difficult getting the truth from many that work within it however I suspect there are many who know the truth who would love to expose the reality.
 Due diligence must be done by parents prior to getting their kids vaccinated, there are too many kids being permanently damaged by these products and the numbers appear worse as the years go on.
 Well done for doing the right thing.
