Any one in Shanghai?

[ppour]

Hi All! We are a Breastfeeding, Cosleeping, No circ, NO Vax, cloth diaper, Waldorf, and Organic family getting ready to move to Shanghai, China in January 08. Anyone else out there in China? Anyone else have experience going to 3rd world countries with kids who have no vax? Our Doc is strongly suggesting we get a few vax for the kids (Polio, Hep A, Hep B) and I havent had a chance yet to check with the Chinese Consolate on what they require in general to enter the country. I DO NOT want to vax my kids, but I also dont want to take them into a disease ridden country unprepared. What do I do? Help! Suggestions and advice of all types appreciated!

Hi LynQ

Thanks for the info on Shanghai Mamas. I will subscribe, and hope to meet some other moms over there. I must admit, I am a little nervous about moving to China with the kids, but I am also quite excited! I think we are going to leave our Kitties with friends in the US, and are still trying to work things out for our home. Talk to you soon.
