I've read so much conflicting information. I don't know who or what to believe, I really don't. I'm so worried about my kids, and we're having another baby in a few months and the jabs will start again.

My oldest daughter has a speech delay. Could this be from vaccines?

Do vaccines still contain mercury and themiserol (sp)?

Please help! Thanks!

If you are uncomfortable with vaccines my suggestion is that you stop vaccinating for the time being, until you feel comfortable again through some unbiased research. You can always vaccinate later if you decide you want to. but you cant take vaccinations back.

Could your daughters speech delay be attributed to the vaccine? it's possible - they are yet to prove or disprove a link between neurological disorders and developmental delays and vaccines, but a lot of parents feel there is a link based on personal experience.

it was suggested vaccine manufacturers remove those ingredients, but from what I understand its not yet mandatory. Also, as with almost everything, as long as they keep it at "only trace amounts" they don't have to say that the ingredient is in there. There are also other things to worry about besides those 2 ingredients.

and finally, I highly suspect one of the posters participating in this thread and others is a troll. and usually I'm the last to spot a troll on a message board because I am so trusting by nature (maybe thats why I used to vaccinate lol) but it seems I am the only one who notices. Perhaps the abusive PM's and then noticing the person joined here JUST to participate on this board, and is 100% pro vax were my clues.

I recommend starting to research each vaccine, its ingredients, the adverse reactions, the diseases, and the vaccine's purpose.

Dr. Sears "The Vaccine Book" is a great place to start. It is kinda leaning pro-vax but oddly enough it convinced me NOT to do them.

I have a blog where I posted about this. Broke each vaccine down and stated the reasons for not getting them. You can find that here.
