We do not give our children medicine or do any vaccines. It’s up to you as the parent to make the right choices for your child/ren and we DO NOT judge anyone of their choices. We also want to provide you with our story and what we have done with our kids, not that we are 100% correct on everything/parenting, however, we do think an alternative to any medicine/surgery and doing the research yourself is BEST for your child/ren.
Julia our daughter has never been to the doctor except at her 1 month check-up to check on weight. And I did take Lincoln for the 1st 8 months, just for well-baby check ups, never for vaccines and I did give him Tylenol a couple of times before we realized the negative effects and possibilities it could have on him. Since then, neither have had any major issues and continued to get adjustments. Lincoln has had an ear infection where we used chiropractic and natural ear drops to heal it; he also had croup where we used steam baths, adjustments and rest to help. And both have had their share of fevers, Julia having more, where we have used chiropractic, warm baths, fluids, and rest to get over. If you allow their bodies to build up immunity then they will heal quicker, better and be able to do it on their own instead of having to rely on medicines. All of our bodies were made with the ability to heal on their own, (that’s how God made us!) there may be an interference that needs to be helped out with a chiropractic adjustment.
For some, chiropractic becomes and issue of money but I’d say to calculate all of your bills up from doctors visits, prescriptions, Tylenols, etc. and see the cost of that. You may find that chiropractic is cheaper in the long run.
I hope that I haven’t offended any one! I just want EVERY mom to know there are alternatives and I am willing to help you check it out. Thanks for reading and I am here to answer any questions!
About Rachel
Yahoo for alternative medicine! Like I told you, we took Zoe for chiropractic/craniosacral when she was just a few weeks old. It helped her tremendously. 🙂
Thanks for finding my blog! We live similar lives!!! We are a vaccine free home and lucky to have a live in chiropractor!
Thanks for stopping by my blog. I have to say we do vaccines, but we also go to the chiropractor and I am a firm believer in it. I guess we are kind of in the middle. I need to take more of my kids for adjustments more often. My husband goes regularly and I haven’t been lately but I always recommend people go.
I am trying to do research on my own regarding vaccines. I am currently 35 weeks pregnant and have had a hard time finding reliable sources for research on vaccines. Most of the info I have found have been from blogs, which don’t get me wrong, I love! All of these blogs about the negative effects of vaccines has been very eye opening for myself, but is not enough for my husband. I really need him on board and was wondering if you had any articles in mind that you have read that you could recommend.
Thank you 🙂
