Vaccine Addendum

I realized after re-reading my post yesterday I realized that you are probably thinking:  “Vaccines are saving lives and why is giving them to my child “giving them into ‘the Man'”?”

Two things:

1.  I am thankful for vaccines.  I get the serious ones because I do not want my child to get the measles, whooping cough, polio or meningitis.  That would be terrible, even deadly.  Many parents get the recommended vaccine schedule without a single problem, and I am thankful.  It is each parent’s decision to make and I do not judge any mom’s decision about vaccines.

2. I have been told by the kids’ pediatrician that because of ObamaCare, their office will get less money reimbursed to them from the insurance companies for patients that are not up to date on all required vaccinations by age two.  Because of this, if Miller doesn’t have all his required shots in the next six months, I may not be allowed to go to Charlotte Pediatrics anymore.  I love my pediatrician and do not want to have to find another one.  How would I?

Now you can see why I am a little peeved about the rigidity of the vaccination schedule.  This is why I am saying that I gave into “The Man” when I brought Miller to have his shot yesterday.  I did.

I hope this clears up a few things that I talked about yesterday.

    Many of us struggled with the vaccine schedule. I also did a lot of research and initially wanted to get them at a later date too. At that time they were still fingering them for autism. I have a friend who did the same thing you did. She got them all in time for her kid to attend public school, but not on the doctor’s schedule. Don’t feel bad. You are just being a good mom. You are the only person who will be an advocate for your kids.
