[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 649064, member: 1550"] When I was trying to get pregnant, the doctor had me take a Rubella test to make sure I was immune to it, but I was pretty sure I wasn't since I'd never had rubella. Sure enough, I wasn't. I did not hesitate to have the shot before getting pregnant. Back in the day when I was a baby, there was no shot for rubella. I just was a very healthy kid and never got anything except a mild case of chicken pox (like four pox). But, as an adult, if the doctor offered me the MMR shot as a baby, and I know what I know now, I would have wanted to have it. Of course, the point is the baby DOESN'T have a say. It's up to the parents. I feel vaccinations are worth the risks. I hate seeing little ones with whooping cough and measles. Chicken pox is usually very mild, but my sister, as I said earlier, almost died with it. I think I typed measles, but it wasn't the measles. She got that sick with chicken pox. [/QUOTE]
