Guest guest Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 I was pregnant with my first born to be a son and I was very aware of Autism. I followed the textbook and didn't put anything into or on my body. No fish, no nail polish, no hair dye, no lotions, etc. The only thing I used was makeup and hairspray. Of course now there is something out about mercury being in certain types of makeup. I can't be for sure but I think that Lorell and Estae Laudre are two of the top containing from what I remember reading, but you should check each label for yourself to be sure... Anyway, I did everything I could from the information that I had and still ended up with a son on the spectrum. I think if I were wanting to be pregnant again I would get a hair elements test done on myself first and make sure my body was " in shape " to house a baby. After that I think the rest is up to God. There is a reason that my son is a part of this, and that I am involved. Don't know why yet though. > From: Cassie Liu <cassieliugx@...> > Subject: [ ] need advice for newborn > > Date: Wednesday, June 11, 2008, 8:29 AM > Dear listmates: > I am a mother of 2 yo ASD boy.

What should i do or not to do to keep my second one away from Austism or other similar illness? Don't allow him to be vaccinated. Nurse as long as possible and eat a healthy diet.

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 http://www.cosmeticsdatabase.com is a great website for figuring out which lotions, shampoos, etc. are toxic!

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 Here are some things that I wished I had done: Eat organic as much as possible, avoid fish (most are toxic but take high quality fish oil as substitute making sure to have right amount for pregnancy), get a filter on the tap water and avoid all possible sources of BPAs (foods packaged in plastics/tupperware, etc. Do what you can & try to enjoy the time left in your pregnancy. > > Dear listmates: > I am a mother of 2 yo ASD boy.

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 Make an informed decision about vaccination before the baby is born. If you don't want them to vaccinate, make sure that you are clear that you don't want the Hep B in the hospital. Breast feed as long as possible. Be very watchful for any signs of food allergy. Delay introduction to gluten and dairy as long as possible. If you need to formula feed, consider a formula like Nutramigen where the casein is highly broken down. Use infant probiotics (this will help establish good gut flora and reduce the risk of food allergy). Cod liver oil also can be given. Consider organic foods (they make lots of organic baby foods now or you could make your own). Most importantly, try to enjoy your little one. We also have a second boy who is now almost a year. It is so hard to just enjoy this child and not be paranoid. I have to say though, I am so appreciative of every little milestone he reaches. I don't take anything for granted anymore.

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 Hi Cassie, Congratulations! Educate yourself about childhood vaccines and consider avoiding them. " What Your Doctor May NOT Tell You About Childhood Vaccines " by Dr. Cave, " Evidence of Harm " by Kirby, and " A Shot in the Dark " are a good place to start. They start with the Hep B on day one, so you'll need to make your wishes very clear (in writing) on the birth plan. Plan to find a mercury-free dentist. Plan to breastfeed if you can. Consider avoiding dairy and gluten while breastfeeding.

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 I would fully agree!! & nbsp; Our daughter was 5 weeks early, and no one even came into my hospital room to let me know they had given her a Hep B shot the day she was born! & nbsp; i would never have consented,...i mean at 5 weeks early especially, but even a full-term newborn, doesn't have an immune system that can fight off all the mercury they're given in their shots! & nbsp; i asked our pediatrician about it after she was diagnosed, and she just flippantly answered that it was common practice and they don't usually ask! & nbsp; & nbsp;i wish i had known going in so that i could tell them as soon as she came out that i wanted to make sure she didn't get shots as a preemie newborn. & nbsp; evidence of harm was crazy to read...i had to put it down several times for a couple days because it was so disturbing, but it's definately a good read and really informative! & nbsp; bottom line is that we're all here to protect our kids, and & nbsp; we would be really bad parents if we didn't check out every little substance that entered their body. & nbsp; Just do lots of research first and be really prudent about what he's exposed to, i'm sure he'll be fine! & nbsp; Congratuations!!

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 Thanks a lot everyone! I did avoid fish and drink very little milk after i joined this group.But I did not have knowledge what to take as substitude. I find some fish oil with warning:not for pregnant woman. I am taking Pregvit only.Please recommand brand and dosage if anyone have experience. I asked my OB about accination for Newborn. He told me the first needle for infant is at 2 month of age (I am in Canada). and i will not accinate him any way. The Hep.B one right after born is so frighten to me. To my understanding the hosipital stull may not let parent know since they take it for granted. I will get the formula people recommand here. I also need advice about the brand and dosage of infant probiotics and cod liver oil. or where can i get educated about all these things for infant. I appreciate all your input.

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 If you birth in a hospital, you cannot EVER let your baby out of your sight. Either you or your dh must always be with the baby. You may want to prepare a vaccine exemption for your baby to take with you. > > Thanks a lot everyone! > > I did avoid fish and drink very little milk after i joined this > group.But I did not have knowledge what to take as substitude.
