yay! i found at least a somewhat like-minded person here in my small, mainstream town! dh was at a meeting last night where afterwards a bunch of his buddies were standing around talking about their kid stuff, and dh found out that one of the guys (who's a chiro) delayed/selectively vaxed his kids (in the mid-90s, no less)! he said that they didn't do any shots before 2 yrs, then they only did the bare minimum, 1 shot at a time, just to get them through school...he said the dr thought he was a total freak! dh was talking about how we weren't vaxing, didn't take ds to WBVs, still ebf'd, etc...he told dh that it sounded like we were doing a good job! 
i really needed that right now...i was getting bummed this weekend thinking about how hard it's going to be going against the grain around here. i just saw a high school friend of mine this weekend who's apparently totally mainstream...she was talking about her ds getting his shots ("the nurses say they never feel bad giving him his shots because his legs are so chunky"
...then she and her mom looked at me like i had three heads when i said ds (8mos) had not started on solids yet ("you haven't even started baby food yet?!" 
). i can't imagine what would have happened had they found out ds is intact!!anyhoo, it was just really perfect timing for my dh to have had this conversation last night...makes me feel like dh and i are not totally alone around here!
thanks for listening!
