Two really great articles were pointed out to me this morning and THIS is the blog for them!
Pro-Vaccine Immunologist Admits a Shocking Truth About Vaccines
Thinking from an economical perspective... if these things are needed to protect our herds... then why are we wasting them on people who can't use them yet? Never mind the potential risks involved."It is pointless to administer drugs intended to stimulate antibody production to babies who are too young to produce antibodies. Infants in their first year mostly depend on generalized, non-specific immunity, including (hopefully) immunoglobulins from breast milk, to protect their young bodies from infection. They do not produce antibodies of their own until about age one. Despite this basic fact, the medical establishment insists administering a total of 19 shots, containing 24 vaccines, to infants on the 2, 4 and 6 month pediatric visits (Source: cdc.gov). Somehow, the basic facts of human physiology and development do not apply to vaccines."
I have always advocated waiting (at the very least.) I cant wrap my head around injecting our 10-15 lb babies with poisons that are supposed to kill any of these horrible diseases that they could get over the next 80 years. Really!? This one shot has enough chemical in it to keep my child safe for 80 years?!?! And you want to give him how many of these shots?! How is that safe for this tiny baby?
The next article:
ACOG: Post Dates is Past 42 Weeks
“Waiting for the birth of a child is an exciting and anxious time. Most women give birth between 38 and 42 weeks of pregnancy. But very few babies are born on their due dates. It is normal to give birth as much as 3 weeks before or 2 weeks after your due date.”What cracks me up is that some people think the baby is going to be TOO BIG to push out of your vagina. Really? You honestly think that God didn't plan for that? That is why we dilate. Of course there are reasons that some babies have to be born early and I am not dismissing those reasons. When you have stats like 30% of hospital births are cesarian and the usage of pitocin is almost half of hospital births I am lead to wonder when we quit trusting God and how amazing our bodies really are at doing their job.
"The rates of both labor induction and C-section have been on an upward trend in the U.S. since the 1990s. Labor inductions have risen from just under 10 percent of births in 1990 to 22 percent in 2006; and in 2007, C-sections were done in almost one-third of all births." (Reuters)
The baby is not going to attend kindergarten in your uterus. He will come out when he is fully cooked. He's not building a house. Just because he isn't ready when you are doesnt mean that something is wrong. And you know that as the grow their heart rate is SUPPOSED to drop, it doesn't always mean distress. My favorite to shake my head at is those women who plan their births... over and over and over. Not just having a birth plan, but "Little Baby A is going to meet us on January 8th... when we evict him." Awesome. I am so sad that women miss the incredibly empowering opportunity to do this ONE incredible thing that no man can ever do! OhMyGosh, after Atlas was born, I felt like I could conquer anything!! I have held onto that, too. My self confidence is doing pretty well on that aspect.
I have been told that I am jaded since I had such an amazing experience with my own first birth at home. But I don't think I am a rarity at all. I have a whole gaggle of mommy friends who did the same thing and really want to encourage and inspire other women to get the information they need to be able to do the same... without fear. It's possible, but your birth team needs to make sure you have all the information you can store!
You're a rarity because you use reason and your own brain instead of swallowing everything the doctors and media tell you about vaccines. And, because you did ANY research on vaccines. The research is damning, but few really look into it. Often, it's a cursory, at best, review. With the high stakes involved in vaccines, autism, etc., that's a scary, scary thing. You don't find that truth with a cursory review of the evidence. As the quote above, how many of the moms who take their under-1-year old baby to the doctor's office for vaccines realize that not only do the vaccines not "work," but the fact that they don't work means THERE IS NO BENEFIT AND ONLY RISK during that time frame? Is this information given them by their pediatricians? No. The pediatrician is abetting the "training" program of the mom (as this is sometimes termed.)
ReplyDeleteYou're a rarity because you believe the same body that grew your baby is able to choose the day to birth your baby. Many women give birth at a hospital with doctors because they think they're safer there. The research doesn't show that. If women really knew how much safer (and nicer) homebirth was, they'd run en masse to homebirth. The less you interfere with birth, the more likely it is to work.
Keep on ranting. Keep on spreading these Dandelion seeds to the wind.
