[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 201166, member: 1233"] First of all, if he is going to get the chicken pox from the vaccine, the strain of ckn pox is weakened so the case of ckn pox will be less. If you wait, and he gets it later, even after age 10, it will be much worse. I am ALL FOR this vaccine. I have had ckn pox 2 times - once when my bro and the 2 little girls we played with all the time got them. A second time when I was 15 and they were everywhere, and I do mean EVERYWHERE. The second time I was nearly hospitalized. While preg with Wiz the history made the doctor go "Hmmm?" and he tested for ckn pox antibodies. I have NONE. Getting ckn pox at this age would be devastating. If your rationale is that you want him to get the pox to build up natural immunity, well, given your family history this shot will do it. He would end up with the ckn pox, and then his body would build up immunity. It is mandatory in many states already. In my state it must be done on or after the 1st birthday. thank you had his ONE day before his 1st birthday, so we have had to do all sorts of letters each year from the doctor. This vaccine is going to be mandatory. I DO forsee a booster in 10 years being needed, but I for one am glad they have the vaccine. I really think you have to go with your gut instinct. But the odds of your son getting ckicken pox from another kid are getting lower with each passing year. I guess if I were you I would want to see ALL the active AND inactive ingredients in the vaccine. And I would think about what I do with the other mandatory vaccines. Follow your mommy instincts, is all I can say. Personally, I am happy we have the ckn pox vaccine, and am looking into boosters for the kids already. [/QUOTE]
