Wonderfully Made on THL
If you are a homeschooler and you don't vaccinate, selectively vaccinate, or are seeking information. I suggest you join The Homeschool Lounge and then join my group "Wonderfully Made." It promises to be a great forum for information and I will be sharing things here, too.
Newborn Procedures
Vitamin K
We dealt with this issue with the last 3 children. My midwife didn't want to influence us either way, but I felt she was kind of reserved on the issue (against it). I had a hospital birth with a midwife with baby #5 in 2004. We didn't do the vitamin K with the last 3 children. Babies #6 (Eden) and #7 (Joshua) were c-sections. This article states that the risk of brain bleeding due to lack of vitamin K is 5 out of 100,000. That's .00005 percent!
Eye Ointment
This ointment is routinely applied to newborns to prevent complications due to std's--specifically chlamydia, syphilis and gonorrhea. The concern is a bacterial infection of the eye that may lead to blindness. Most likely, you don't have any of these std's, so this is not an issue for you. I will say this, I have Group B Strep during my pregnancies, so we did decide to do the ointment for my 5th baby who was born naturally, BUT we delayed for a bit so he could bond with me. If I had to do it over again, I would refuse it. My 2 C-section babies did not have it.
Here is an article regarding the eye ointment.
Our hospital was willing to work with us and our midwife and my OB have been very supportive of our right to choose. However, if I were dealing with a different situation, I would draw up papers stating my objection to the vitamin K shot, prophylactic eye drops, etc. and have them notarized. It would show them you are serious when you show up with that paper. Your husband should go with the baby if he/she is removed from your room after birth for any reason to make sure the medical staff upholds your wishes. Also, discuss your desires with your pediatrician before the birth.

JRA
JRA stands for Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis. In order to make this compact I will not go into too much detail. In short, my 17 year old daughter was diagnosed with it at the ripe age of 3. At around age 14 she began a remission. She went off the dreaded methotrexate she had been on for years. Some children "outgrow" it. I was hopeful she was one of them. Last summer she got a tetanus booster. (This is the ONE we do get.) I was told it was fine by her rheumatologist. Ever since then she has been complaining of aches and pains off and on. Well, by this summer she is in full blown active phase again. It could be coincidence that this happened following the tetanus shot. I'll never truly know... (She had a flare after her MMR booster at age 5, too. This is back when I wasn't armed with what I know now about vaccines.) Currently, she is taking methotrexate and naproxyn. Three days a week she is so sick to her stomach that she occasionally has dry heaves in the morning, she can hardly eat, and fights nausea. We're seeing our doctor here at home this coming week. If you think of it. Please pray for her. I know God is greater than this disease! (I think I've learned a valuable lesson, too.)
Saying No to Vaccines
I recently found this information thanks to some helpful MOMYS. I will be purchasing the book Saying No to Vaccines: A Resource Guide for All Ages by Sherri Tenpenny in order to review this additional information on the vaccine issue. Dr. Tenpenny's website is very informative. There is a WEALTH of information on vaccines. I especially liked all the info on the HPV vaccine.

White Lies

I referenced earlier in this blog about a book that was sent to me by the author. Sarah Honenburger wrote White Lies. The goal of this book is to raise awareness of vaccination injury. It is a very interesting read and I really enjoyed it. If you are interested in purchasing a copy of this book go here to purchase it. Please visit her website for more information.

How vaccines can harm your brain
Here is a link to an article written by a well-known neurologist. It is lengthy and technical, but in gathering information on vaccines, I believe it should not be overlooked. This gives us a glimpse of the effects of vaccines later in life. Please share this with people over 50 who receive the flu shot, too! It shocks me to think that there are posters up at my OB's office pushing the flu shot on pregnant women.

Chicken Pox Vaccine
Here is an article about the rise of the occurrence of chicken pox in vaccinated children in TX. This isn't just happening there, folks. The danger of this vaccine is adult onset of the disease which is much more serious. Requiring booster shots is foolish. A real case of the disease would give life-long immunity, not just possible temporary protection. In addition, there has been a rise of shingles in small children who have been vaccinated. This is a vaccine of convenience. In the long run it is not a good choice for the health of our children.
