No drug/vaccine is ever 100% safe

I'm sorry but if any doctor or anyone said "oh it's totally safe" I wouldn't buy it for a minute. Any drug, vaccine can have a potential risk and side effect. We humans aren't a one size fit all mentality. Some people react to things differently than others, it's just the way it is. Everyone should fully understand the risk associated with any drug or vaccine. If the doctor say's there isn't any and 100% safe, don't buy it.

Just another yet case of potential vaccine side effect:

Thursday May 31st!

Last day of May! Oh my where did the month go? Can't believe it's June tomorrow. I have to call for my jury duty tomorrow, hoping I don't have to go in. They really should excuse moms who take care of their kids. I mean if I did get called in for one day, not a huge deal but if some rare chance it was a case that took days, or weeks? I mean really Larry can't take all that time off from work and I have no one else that can concievable watch them all that time!
Someone I knew was giving away a guinea pig, so I offered to take it in. The girls are just loving her. They sat by her all afternoon. K has decided to name her Bessy. Let's see how long it will take for this novelty to wear off.

I loved this article. I can only hope that the future is definitley brighter in the birthing world.






Yesterday was a fun day. We went to an organic farm. The girls had a blast. Kaitlyn especially enjoyed feeding the goats leaves, and who knew goats just love love oak leaves! Then we went out for ice cream and came home and played in the yard. Megan fell asleep at 5 pm and woke at 7 am! this is a record for, she never sleeps that much. So it was a relaxing night for us as well. I got some reading done. Nothing like reading about comfort measures during labor on a Saturday night, lol.

Deaths may have been caused by Gardasil

I wouldn't touch this vaccine with a ten foot pole. It is so new, how do we really know for sure what the effects are and the effectiveness. No way would I ever allow my girls to be guinea pigs. As far as some states so quick on the bandwagon to mandate this vaccine, tsk tsk.
FDA info on Menactra vaccine

Interesting how while researching vaccines that GBS comes up so often but yet they aren't readily coming out and saying that theres a possible risk to the general public
