I think it is healthy for us to wonder, and to keep checking with outbreaks, research, etc. I would be concerned for someone who is 100% certain... beacuse life is uncertain, and it's hard to know for sure.
What helps me is coming back here, and reading more here and elsewhere. My GP's calm support helps. Sometimes I feel very alone with my decision - dh supports it but would vax were it not for me. My other relatives all vax. Many of my AP friends selectively vax. I am still waiting. I may do some vax's when dd is older (like school age), like tetnus and maybe chick pox if she hasn't gotten it yet. But for now, I feel very solid in my decision up to this point.
I think it also helps to have the support of an educated naturopath. My GP is an osteopath, but she could refer me if I needed help treating for something homeopathically, etc. As much as we get frustrated with the medical world, we do need docs (IMO) and having supporting and educated ones is invaluable.

as soon as he got the needle I became 1000% sure of my choices re: vaccines. He hasn't received any vax since & DS2 hasn't been vaxed at all.

but there are many diseases other than "vaccine preventable" ones
