There's mercury in vaccines and it makes the babies sick.  Everyone should research vaccines before giving it to your baby. Doctors are paid to issue these vaccines without really educating the parents. So as parents we have to learn on our own. I have friends who choose not to vaccinate and their children are perfectly healthy.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), unvaccinated individuals made up 80% of the people affected during the 2015 measles outbreak in California. Roughly 43% of these people were unvaccinated for philosophical or religious reasons, 40% were ineligible (too young to receive the vaccine or had a medical contraindication), 4% missed opportunities for vaccination, and 13% had other reasons for not being vaccinated. The 40% who were ineligible to receive the vaccine were unable to decide to have the vaccine, yet, they made up the majority of affected people. These are the people that routine vaccines protect: our young, ill, and elderly. Vaccination is important to keep your own child safe, but also those around your child.

I'm vaccinating. Doing so protects your child and others she/he may come in contact with. It allows your child to build immunities or at least antibodies that will help them fight infections/diseases. I vaccinated my first child and she is doing great and I myself am fully vaccinated.

I feel it's necessary as some people have lost their child due to not getting them vaccinated because of religious beliefs or not trusting the vaccines

I'm in the same boat. Not sure how to feel about vaccinating my baby. I vaccinated my two other kids and thank God they are fine. I've been doing research and just reading the side effects are scary. There is other alternatives, I'm going to spread them out and leave out the ones that are not necessary. You should research on it and do what you think is best for your baby.
