[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 465939, member: 3419"] I knew there would be a variety of answers here. :) with-husband being a chiropractor, he was against a lot of the immunizations, so we went down the list and chose what we wanted and didn't want. We DID want whooping cough vaccine, because it is one of the first to re-occur when immunizations taper off. It came back with-a vengeance in England about 15 yrs ago. I have a friend whose daughter had it and no one slept for 2 mo's. Ugh. We did NOT want chicken pox vaccine, because it only lasts 3 yrs and typically, if you get chicken pox, you're immune for life (although you can get shingles in middle age and later). difficult child has had the chick pox vaccine because of his age. He hadn't had the Real McCoy by age 12 so we caved. The others we did not bundle. I had to pay extra to get the vaccines separated and spaced by about a month apiece. The doctors and nurses argued with-me and I argued that I am going to get them; just not bundled. It's too hard on the immune system. [/QUOTE]
