Vaccines - Pro? Anti? Not sure?

I am neither Pro- nor Anti- vaccine. I, just like any other parent, want to make the best decisions for my child. I have done extensive research on vaccine benefits and side effects. The following are facts about CA Vaccine laws as found on state websites and then I go into my recommendations as a Doctor and health care professional. 

In California these are the 2019 mandated immunization requirements for children to attend schools and day cares (depends on age when enrolling) 18mo-5yrs: (as written by SB277)
3 Polio
4 DTaP
3 Hep B
1 MMR on or after the 1st birthday
1 Hib on or after the 1st birthday**
1 Varicella

CA 2019 Immunizations required to enter child K-12 in detail https://www.shotsforschool.org/k-12/
Diphtheria, Tetanus, and Pertussis (DTaP, DTP, Tdap, or Td) — 5 doses (4 doses OK if one was given on or after 4th birthday. 3 doses OK if one was given on or after 7th birthday.) For 7th-12th graders, at least 1 dose of pertussis-containing vaccine is required on or after 7th birthday.
Polio (OPV or IPV) — 4 doses(3 doses OK if one was given on or after 4th birthday)
Hepatitis B — 3 doses(not required for 7th grade entry)
Measles, Mumps, and Rubella (MMR) — 2 doses (Both given on or after 1st birthday)
Varicella (Chickenpox) — 2 doses

PSA: DO NOT give vaccines to your child if your child is sick, is taking antibiotics or has eczema. Their immune system is handling a lot already so wait for another time to inoculate. Do not give vaccines to children under 14 months old - their neurological development is at a fragile state and the hard metals (aluminum) in the vaccine can overstimulate the nerve system. 

Immunizations have saved many lives. We also do not understand the safety of giving 1) multiple immunizations at once and 2) giving them to infants. Today in the USA, 2019, immunization schedules are at its all-time high and are being administered at the earliest in life ever. THERE ARE NO STUDIES THAT PROVE THIS TO BE SAFE. 

I recommend being conservative with immunizations. I recommend:

• DO NOT give vaccines to your child if your child is sick, is taking antibiotics or has eczema
• Do not give any vaccines until 4 month check-up 
• Begin giving shots at 12 months
• Only give 1-2 shots at a time to not overstimulate their nerve and immune systems - especially since we are immunizing children earlier than ever before.
• Ask your pediatrician to get blood titers done when going in for a "booster" (a follow-up) shot to see if the one given prior is still activates the baby's immune system. If the blood titer comes back positive, you can pospone the booster until a future date. 

I have made an "alternative" immunization schedule that abides by these recommendations and abides by the CA state laws allowing children to enter schools and day cares. One exception to this is I recommend getting medical exemption for the Varicella (chickenpox) vaccine and instead allowing your child to get the actual disease and keeping them home for a week to deal with it appropriately. The google document that has tabs at the bottom for whether you want to begin immunizing your child at 4 months, 6 months or 12 months.

Ways to boost your baby's immune system, naturally: 

• Vaginal birth (vaginal secretions in baby's orifices at birth boosts baby's immune system
• Give birth at home (baby is already used to mom's bacteria in utero, so having it at home where mom's bacteria is everywhere will help protect baby from big scary bacteria in hospitals)
• Breast feed (baby receives mother's immune factors in milk)
• Let toddlers play in dirt! 
• Don't use anti-bacterial serums and lotions 
• Get baby and children adjusted - boosts immune system
• Feed babies and children bone broth. Castor oil works great too.
