About Diphtheria and Pertussis as separate shots..I did not think they were available separately either..and it seems strange that in a link here I found an alternative schedule from..Donald J Miller..in his "user friendly schedule" he mentions giving those 2 separately..6 months a part.
Here is my issue..
For parents who are considering an alternative schedule..it seems a shame that there aren't some more examples of what one could do..one that might have proper info. Stephanie Cave's is 1..but..
just a thought

For a parent wanting to make their own schedule (delayed, selective whatever) it is really pretty silly for there to be ones out there to choose from. If you're not following "what's done" then you are going to have to make your decisions based on your concerns. Both your concerns about vaxes and your concerns about diseases. Otherwise a delayed schedule is just random.

There was a good thread a couple of weeks ago started by MT that discussed this. It mentioned questions you need to ask yourself before you can decide anything like that.
