As a parent, in particular a natural focused parent, I think vaccinations are one of the hardest decisions you make for your baby/child. We decided not to vaccinate our daughter and she is now 18 months old. We just felt that pumping that much of anything into a new little body did not make sense. It just did not feel right to us as parents. Tallulah has never been sick except two brief one day colds and she was teething at the time and she has progressed in all areas of growth and is a very strong and happy little girl. We do believe that not vaccinating her plays a part in that. Now of course, until we have a second baby and do all the same things with it, we will not know if we are right but regardless, we feel very confident in our choice.
Here is a great resource for helping you make a decision on vaccinations. It is not biased. It really does give you all kinds of information and it is a great forum to hear others thoughts and decisions.
I hope it helps you.
