Yeah that is just reminding me that I was also not breastfed...
Sigh
My mom thought her milk supply wasn't adequate or something. So I got put on formula and rice cereal at 10 days.
I wonder if I would have been taller
Probably would have better teeth too
Oh well.
"Yeah, well I'm taller" - Neo
wait, that was from Speed?
If I was breastfed maybe I'd get the movie right
I don't remember it from the Matrix lol
It was Speed, I was kidding
Haha ok. I haven't seen Speed since the 90s
The Matrix though... I was all about that movie in like 2002-2004
But jokes aside, there are a lot of factors I fear we ignore
All we can do is better for our children the best we can
My kids are happy and healthy as little horses so far (fingers crossed) so hopefully I'm doing OK
My mother was pretty anti-vaccine when I was growing up.
In fact, she was Miss Anti-Vaccine 1992
She couldn't attend the awards ceremony cause my brother and I both got the measles
Haha
That would be funny as hell as long as you both came through it OK though
Mine are getting their shots
Skip the snip, keep the vax
If I had triplets I would name them Measle, Mump and Rubella
But jokes aside, what do you think about the whole vaccine thing?
I think the only reason people think they're bad is because they haven't had to live with the alternative
I'd have to agree
I mean, I do, not have to
I'm sure there are improvements possible, maybe some of the additives are harmful, etc.
But overall it seems like they save *far* more lives than they do harm
One additive, the one commonly stated is no longer in them, no?
Yeah thimerosal
Thymerisol?
sp
I think they removed that one quite a few years ago
the amount of actual vaccine as a percentage of bodyweight is just so small though, I really doubt it was ever that big a risk
we're talking parts per billion of bodyweight
the biggest side effects are allergic reactions and immune hyperactivity
But seriously, who are we to say that flipper babies weren't going to be the next Einsteins?
