I have my 3rd child due in a month. I wish I had known more about vaccines for the first 2 and not had them vaccinated but they are healthy so far. I am not vaccinating the 3rd. I was wondering if anyone had any advice on this in Texas.

I know the doctors are going to make it difficult and I may have to jump around until we find a pediatrician that will be okay with it. What I am really concerned with is school. I wish we could homeschool or do private school but it is not possible at the moment. Maybe that will change. It looks like I have to file for an affidavit of exemption and then send the school the affidavit of the exemption every two years. This seems really easy.

If anyone has any thoughts, please let me know.

My fear would be the doctors injecting my child during all the time he spends away from his mother in the incubator. They could just blatantly do it and put it on his medical record. Even if I recorded myself ordering them to not vaccinate my child I doubt I could get them in any legal trouble for standard vaccinations.

Hospitals are getting rid of nurseries, typically they push the child to be next to the mother until they check out.

I'm sure you could request the child stay within your sight at all times.

I was going to reply on this. My second child is 2 and he never left our room. That was pre-covid vax. Now I certainly wouldn't let my child out of my site under no circumstances in a hospital.

There is no reason to be in an incubator. The child should be with the mother for an extended period of time and the umbilical cord should not be cut until it stops transporting nutrients to the baby outside the mother.

It will simply fall off on its own, as designed. Doctors will pretend otherwise, but they didn't exist when we were created.
