when our baby was born we asked the pediatrician doing rounds about the then-new RSV vaccine, and she visibly steeled herself before launching into a pre-rehearsed spiel about the efficacy of vaccines and only relaxed when we were like, no, we’re asking because we WANT it

NEW: Babies Are Bleeding to Death as Parents Reject a Vitamin Shot Given at Birth The vitamin K shot, a lifesaving injection given to newborns to prevent uncontrollable bleeding of the brain and intestines, has become collateral damage of the anti-vaccine movement.

Yeah same, the nurses were visibly relieved when we told them we wanted every vaccine they can give my son lol

I happened to be in the room when a client of mine had just brought her baby home, and her mom was looking at the vaccine schedule intensely. She laid down the paper and opened her mouth, and my client held up a hand and said “it’s not up for discussion. He’s getting them all.“ could’ve hugged her.
