Roll call: Vax Damage Autism result - Page 3  

post #41 of 44
I have a set of twins that received shots up to their mmr when they was 15 months. One of my twins was diagnosed with aspergers autism at 3 years 2 mo. The other twin has ADHD/ADD. you know going back over my history with the doctor, I didn't even think about the rhogam shots That was given to me every pregnancy I had. I had two children before my set of twins. The other two are in perfect health and they have not been vaxed.

Now I read other post and see about people having rhogam shots, silver fillings in their teeth and many other things. I just can't believe that I didn't even think about it. I am not sure genetics plays a part in it. There is no one in my family with a child with autism.

All I can remember is having a high risk pregnancy. Having amnio done. Doctor telling me everything was fine wtih the babies. Then having my rhogam shot. Then after I had the girls I had a bunch of antibiotics that I passed thru them by breast feeding. Not to mention all the medications the babies received due to being premature and their lungs not fully developed. Then at a year old they both had RSV that ended up becoming double pneumonia and was hospitalized for 3 weeks and then sent home with home health nurse for 6 months. At 15 mo. They both received their MMR shots. And I haven't had any more vaccinations since then. Then at 3 years 2 mo. They were diagnosed.

I get upset just sitting here reading everyones stories. I always thought am I the only one going thru this. But I couldn't believe so many others like me. Thank you for this forum

If an Rh- negative woman has an abortion or a miscarriage before the birth of her first child she may be sensitized.

I think that after a miscarriage or abortion the Rhogam shot is routinely administered for that reason.

I understand about previously being sensitized, but my MW was saying that in a pregnancy it is possible for the mother's blood to mix with the baby's blood without anyone knowing that it happened. For example, if a pregnant woman has an amnio or is in a car accident, you might expact that the trauma to result in the mixing of fluids somehow. She said that the fluid can mix for no reason. (I asked if I could just get the shot if I suffered any abdominal trauma).

I do not understand how mom and baby's blood can mix if there has been no rupture of membranes. I'm fairly certain that there's no osmosis effect with fetal bood.
