Hi all,

I'm here to ask questions about vaccines and BF'ing. I'm traveling to Haiti for a legal project that I'm working on in about a month, and I really don't want to wean my son yet. He's 20mo, and nursing 3-4times a day. While I'm in Haiti he'll be with his dad (who he does not live with but has a great relationship with him).

Vaccines are generally safe for travel right? What about malaria meds? I don't necessarily HAVE to take the malaria pills - I can just slather myself in deet and wear long sleeves/long pants, but I wanted to find out. I'm going to my dr on Friday to talk to her about all this, but I wanted to see if any of you awesome women know about this?
