It was hosted by my midwives, and led by a natural-leaning doctor. We left feeling really educated about it all. There are still some we probably won't do (just one or two), but overall, our fears were calmed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-been-anti-vaccines-and-then-decided-to-vaccinate#post-1029829 Mon, 19 Aug 2013 16:53:32 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1029829@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know several who research each vaccine and each illness and weigh each individually. They may identify with anti-vax, but choose a very alternate schedule; skipping some (like chickenpox or RV) but getting others that are more serious illnesses (such as DTap or MMR).</p> <p>I probably know more who vaccinated on schedule, then stopped. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-been-anti-vaccines-and-then-decided-to-vaccinate#post-1029817 Mon, 19 Aug 2013 16:44:54 +0000 runsyellowlites 1029817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know a few that chose to not vaccinate until they could do some research &amp; then decided to vax (whether completely or adjusted), but not any that were "anti" vax &amp; then changed.... most (probably 95%) were those we did vax and then chose to stop. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-been-anti-vaccines-and-then-decided-to-vaccinate#post-1029816 Mon, 19 Aug 2013 16:43:29 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 1029816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know someone who did not vaccinate and her child got a catastrophic vaccine preventable illness. She vaccinates now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-been-anti-vaccines-and-then-decided-to-vaccinate#post-1029796 Mon, 19 Aug 2013 16:33:25 +0000 emg86 1029796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just curious. What changed your mind?</p> <p>I know people who were vaccinating regularly but then decided to stop. </p>
