Prenatal vaccines

Harlee • Mama to a beautiful baby girl 👧 1 angel baby 👼🏼 another on the way 🌈🤰

Ugh just so annoyed with people and their “you have to vaccinate, it’s the only way” attitude. I just got back home from my prenatal appointment. The lady asked me if I’m planning on getting the whooping cough booster while pregnant, and I just bluntly said no. And she went on this whole thing about how it’s such a good idea, and you don’t want your baby to get it, and yadda yadda. She said we’ve seen a rise in whooping cough since I live in a large Amish/Mennonite community, where many choose not to vaccinate. But you know what, whooping cough isn’t really that bad🙄 my mom and Aunt are pretty sure my 2 little cousins got it when they were infants, but guess what?? They’re just fine!!! Ya, they had a pesky little cough, and low grade fever for a bit, but nothing compared to lifelong problems like asthma, gut issues, autism, and allergies! Like really woman, I was very clear about what I want, so leave me alone. I’m not changing my mind 🙄
