🚨 DISCLAIMER: I’m not a medical professional—just a mom who has done the research, after 2 of my own children experienced negative side effects to vaccines. It led me to start asking the hard questions, speaking up for our children and now I am on a mission to empower other moms to do the same. My goal is to help you feel confident in your choices by encouraging real research and informed decision-making.
As moms, we all want to make the best choices for our children’s health. But what if some of the things we’ve been told about vaccines aren’t the full story?
What if there are myths and misconceptions about the childhood vaccine schedule that deserve a closer look?
💛 Momma, you deserve to have all the information before making such an important decision. Let’s explore what you need to know about vaccines so you can make confident, informed choices for your family.
FACT #1: Understanding Vaccine Safety Testing
Most parents assume that vaccines go through the same rigorous, long-term safety testing as other pharmaceutical drugs. But they don’t.
✔ None of the routine childhood vaccines were licensed based on a true, long-term placebo-controlled trial.
✔ Many vaccine trials only track side effects for days or weeks, making it impossible to detect long-term issues.
FACT #2: The CDC Schedule Is a Recommendation
The CDC schedule is often presented as mandatory, but in reality, it’s just a recommendation—not the law.
✔ Vaccine requirements vary by state, and many states allow medical, religious, or philosophical exemptions.
✔ The CDC schedule has more than tripled since 1983, now recommending 72 doses by age 18.
FACT #3: Health Outcomes to Consider
The U.S. gives more vaccines than most other countries, yet:
✔ The U.S. ranks 36th out of 38 wealthy nations in child well-being (UNICEF, 2020).
✔ Despite having one of the most extensive vaccine programs, our children’s health statistics continue to decline.
