any women Rh- here?

[julia24]

I am. My daughter was Rh+. Standard practice for an Rh- mother, as you may know, is to give at least one Rhogam shot during pregnancy & one right after.

 

Did you know that the majority of Rhogam shots in the US have thimerosal (mercury) that is directly channeled to the DEVELOPING fetus? We are told to eat fish once a week, at most, & yet hit the fetus with enough mercury we could have eaten tons of fish with the same effect.

 

Not only that, my poor dd got hit with another vaccine, a day after birth, that is packed with thimerosal--the Hep vaccine.

 

Never again. I am so fortunate that she has developed normally so far, though I know a TS and/or OCD diagnosis is probably in our future. I just feel so lucky that it wasn't severe disabilities.

 

I just wanted to give any other Rh- women a heads-up to do your research on this before conceding to the vaccine they want to give during the pregnancy.
