My expertise, such as it is, centers on
homeopathy, Chinese medicine pediatrics,
and holistic pediatrics. |

perspective on vaccination. |

first time mom @ 37, if I waiat to

Your baby is protected by the antibodies
she inherited from you through your
blood supply. |
|

RandallNeustaedter |
Anything that you have been exposed to
and developed antibodies against are
transferred to your baby. |
|
12:09:55 |

Therefore there is nothing to worry
about. |

Dr, what do you have to say about
critics of families who don't
vaccinate? I am thinking specifically
of the people who claim that our
unvaccinated children will bring the
contagious diseases back into public
health issues. Are we really going to
make |

This protection lasts for at least 6
months. |

Ah, is it your duty to sacrifice your
child's health to the popular belief
that vaccines are the correct means to
protect against disease? |
|
12:11:56 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Because I think all children suffer from
the ill effects of vaccination whether
they have drastic immediate reactions or
not. |

How do you feel about using 'nosodes' as
an alternative for vaccination?
Especially for travelling. Are they
useful or is having a good diet just as
good in keeping your immune system
strong? |

We are trading off supposed protection
against acute illnesses for some very
severe chronic diseases initiated by
vaccines (asthma, diabetes, and learning
disorders to name a few). |

12:14:05 |

Nosodes - I only use these in the case
of exposure to epidemics or a known
exposure (e.g. whooping cough). |

I do not think it is appropriate to give
children multiple homeopathic medicines
that are not indicated on the basis of
current symptoms in their bodies. |
|
12:15:27 |
RandallNeustaedter |
There is a section on nosodes and
homeoprophylaxis in my book The Vaccine
Guide, and on my website
www.cure-guide.com. Search there for
alternative vaccines. |

My book and website also contain
sections on keeping your unvaccinated
child's immune system strong and vital. |
|
12:18:19 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Ask holistic practitioners in your area
if they know any. Ask any mothering and
attachment parenting groups. Then call
around and ask them point blank if they
accept children whose parents choose not
to vaccinate. You can look at
hpakids.org and see if there is a
holistic pediatrician within earshot of
you as well. |

I have not vaccinated my 5 month old but

months? |

Yes you can give the raw milk formula to
newborns. |
|
12:22:53 |
RandallNeustaedter |
The formula, though difficult to make,
can be found in my book Child Health
Guide and on the westonaprice.org
website in the child health section. |

About tetanus. This is your choice of
course. There is no tetanus vaccine
alone that does not contain mercury, so
that is a concern. |
|
12:23:56 |
RandallNeustaedter |
The other option is to wait and use the
tetanus immune globulin at the ER for a
serious tetanus prone injury. |
|
12:24:15 |

This has more to do with your comfort
level and anxiety level than anything

My husband is a health care worker and
requires up to date vaccinations for his
job as he can be exposed to various
things. Currently our 7 mo old is
unvaccinated but hubby is really
concerned about exposing our child to
unwanted viruses, bacteria, etc. |

I am sorry if I am butting in or asking
a question that has already been asked,
couldn't find the right room! But, my
question is, do you doctor feel that any
of the recommended vaccines are must
haves" and if so, at what age?" |
|
12:26:52 |
RandallNeustaedter |
Keep your child's immune system strong
with breastfeeding and supplements of
fish oil. |

None of my 5 children are vaccinated, so
I don't feel personally that any are
beneficial to them. |

If a child does contract vpd, is it
very important to treat them naturally
or is it still important to seek
conventional treatment. I have heard
that leaving the fever to run its
course, and dosing with Vit C in large
doses are beneficial to healing. |

The treatment for childhood illnesses
depends on the disease and its severity
or potential for complications. |

Obviously you don't need antiviral drugs
to treat chickenpox. |

I am a firm believer in all children
getting ADEQUATE amounts of omega 3 fats
through breastmilk as infants and
through a supplement once they are
eating solids and nursing less. |
