Re: Antibiotics and Vitamin K

March 7, 2006

hi tara--

i have two children--one who is 2 and a half and one who is 4 mths old. we

also considered not giving the vit k shot. i also had group b strep with both

of my kids and had a few rounds of IV antibiotics while in labor. we see an

autoimmune specialist (b/c my husband has ITP--blood disease that is

autoimmune) and this dr also does some homeopathic things with our kids for

yeast and colds and stuff. anyways, i asked him the question about the VIT K

and he strongly suggested we get it. we went with his decision and gave it to

both girls. we also do not vaccinate at all and i am not sure if we will ever

but that is our next big step is to make a decision on whether or not to

vaccinate at all! hope this helps! kim

I had strep B so they put me on antibiotics. It sounds like from some

that I have read that the mother having the antibiotics might make it

more neccessary for the Vitamin K shot. But I just am not sure if

that is really the case. Any thoughts on this?

I did read the info in the files section and some info that was posted

earlier, so I am mainly looking for info to help me connect the dots

for something that I might not have understood in my readings. Also,

I am interested in others experiences on whether they gave the Vitamin

K shot after reading the info and why they made the decision. I am

just trying to come up with a situation where it might be recommended

to give the shot.

Thanks,

Tara

If you can all avoid antibiotics - what insanity this strep b thing is.

Many of the autistic children I see as a homeopath had antibiotic exposure

in utero and at delivery.

Man, they do everything to injure your children that they can.

sheri--

maybe you can help me out here! i had group b strep and was placed on

antibiotics during labor. what would happen if i refused them? i know dr's

usually don't tell the truth AND push you into the drugs. i also had pitocin

AFTER birth and NOONE even told me they were doing it! i breastfeed so it went

through my breastmilk! UGHHH!! my children are both fine--SO FAR. my two and

a half yr old has NEVER been vaccinated and i don't know if we ever will b/c of

my husband. he has ITP/Evan's syndrome which is autoimmune. we are for sure

planning on having another child in a year or so and i was wondering your

opinion on what to do about group b strep--should i refuse antibiotics?? what

is the risk the baby will get it if i DON'T get them? thanks so much! kim
