I just think that at some point you have to have some trust int he professionals you choose to care for your child, if nto then we should all just got to Medical school and be our own doctors

Well said, I totally do agree with this. I feel we should be educated on topics, but at some point you have to trust your health care provider.



i completely agree. my son received the shot--i wouldn't dream of not giving it to him as the risks of anything going wrong are minimal at best.

i'm not a doctor and i don't consider "research" to be what i read online as many sites are biased. true research IMO is found in medical journals and reading case studies. i trust my doctor to make informed decisions for me, or to educate me to make my own decision. i didn't go to medical school so i wouldn't dream of knowing more than he.

A vaccine is a dead or weakened form of a virus - Vitamin K is not a virus = therefore it isn't a vaccine. Just an FYI - Vitamin K shots have been given to babies for a very long time. From atleast before I was born! It isn't something new - its just part of what the drs. do when they check the baby in the initial stages.
