Unfortunately, I vaccinated my first child Noah in 2004. He had all of his shots up until he was 12 months. Not sure what else he was supossed to have, but I finally got the information I needed and decided it was wise to stop the rest of his vaccines. He never showed any signs of damage from the vaccines at all. I'm very worried of what I might have done to his poor little system. When I think about what I have done, I can't help but wonder if he will have problems later on from the vaccines he was given. He doesn't show signs of being autistic at all. Can these kind of signs show up later on in life? Are there any little signs of damage to look out for? I'm just sick that we vaccinated without knowing the dangers of vaccinations!! We have not vaccinated my second child, and will not in the future. My son is very bright for his age. For example: he learned 10 colors by 8 months of age, could identify 17 farm animals by 8 months, learned his abc's by 15 months, and knows all of the letter sounds by 19 months. He has a very broad vocabulary, and is only 2 years old. I think he will probably be reading by the age of three if he keeps going at this rate!! He can count up to 30 already and is starting to spell things, and he knows a bunch of his shapes also. People freek out when he opens his mouth. They freak out b/c he is so smart. Is this a sign of a high functioning autistic child? He has not had any speech delays, if anything, he is ahead of most children his age. He can speak in clear sentences for the most part. I guess I'm just worried he will show signs later on and I won't be able to recognize the problems if it is from mercury intoxication. Is he too young to start a detox program, just in case he did get mercury in any of his shots. I'm just a concerned mom and want to give him the best, even though I made a horrible decision when we decided to vaccinate. I just didn't know any better. Thanks ahead of time for the advice or input.
