hi there i been over in toddler a lot as Abby is now 14 mths.. i have posted a few times on this subject and i feel very strongly that the problems caused are because babies are getting too much all together too soon... i feel that the mmr follows too quickly after the 12 month jabs so have decided Abby wont get her mmr till the end of jan when she will be 16 months..this decicion isnt something i just decided from nowhere but with lots of reaserch and taking medical and homeopathic advice. my son is 11 and the mmr scandal and controvecy (sp)was at its height so when he had to have his jag i was very worried but i was lucky cos my gp at the time was fab and she gave me a copy of all the facts and figures (no google then god i so old lol)and when i read it all i thought the probs were caused by as i say too much too young and too close together and my gp also agreed but said cos its nhs i had to come to that decicion as she wasnt able to!! so i delayed the mmr
so with Abby they have now introduced the pcv injection at the same time as the mmr so effectivly 4 jabs in 1 well i dis agree with this so at 13 mths Abby had the pcv and as i say get the mmr at 16 mths
i also give Abby a homeopathic remidey called Thuja before and after any injections and what this does it significantly reduce sideaffects like high temp and sickness it does this by counteracting the affect the "carrier"fluid the live injection is given in .the injections have to be kept at an optimum temp which most gp's cant do because the refridgeration gets comprimised by opening the fridge door which happens regularly ..it was discovered during the gulf war that the injections were making the soldiers sick and one of the many complex factor was the carrier fluid in injection so the homeopathic practitioners descovered Thuja was perfect for this
hope i havent waffled too much but all i can say is so far Abby has had absolutely no reaction to any of her jabs and i put it down to the Thuja
