Worried give or take a few exposing my Newborn Daughter to my cousins Not-Vaccinated child.?

I understand that every parent has a say within there child's health.
I understand that masses parents have concerns about vaccines and the whole autism piece. I have fears too. But I have a bigger fear of my Daughter contracting a sickness from a sick child later getting Autism.

I have a cousin who is ANTI any vaccine/medicine. She is the all organic crude mommy. Good for her. But this thanksgiving I will have my one month old around the family and I am worried more or less my child getting sick.

I understand that she has a right but what gives her the right to put my child contained by harms way. What is your advice.
I am now a non vaccinator ..here is the thing. your child have more of a chance getting sick when you go to walmart. your cousins child would have to be exposed to some one beside measles mumps rubella etc.and the chances of that are slim to none. and as the mother of an autistic child i would rather him of gotton the mumps really. and she is not puttin your child in harms means of access you are the parent not her. so how do you know that all the kids at daycare..playgroup..preschool ..walmart..etc have had vaccines..you dont..we live surrounded by a world of paranoia and it has gotton out of hand.and at one month old your babe is not fully vaccinated and they dont promise you that it will protect them fully..i did everything for my 16 year old and she had heart probs and is presently diabetic..its life..you cant stop it .so dont worry your baby wont come home next to the mumps..

Aside from flu, near would be little chance of exposing your daughter to Rubella, Polio, TB, etc. In fact, your baby will probably encounter plenty of non-vaccinated ethnic group in stores or public in general.

Still, if it's significant to you, just say you're still too tired and recovering from childbirth to make Thanksgiving. The household may be upset, but they should understand being a new parent is damn tough.
Answers:    Your daughter won't get autism from anybody. However, I simply would maintain my child away from families who choose not to vaccinate. My cousin's gf won't bring her daughter whenever she visits one relative for like peas in a pod reason. I'm sure the relative has some hurt feelings, but until adjectives the vacs are complete, she isn't taking a chance.

The whole point of vaccinating everybody is to protect those who cannot be vaccinate or do not develop antibodies.

BTW, I would add that although your daughter can't get autism from others, it is absolutely true that some of the disease that you catch vaccinated for can cause neurological damage that falls into the autism spectrum. I ruminate maybe that is what you are talking roughly speaking. A little 4 year old, whose dad I knew, developed neurological problems after getting 'cat scratch disease'. Although not classical autism (which is in a minute certainly inherited), she has symptoms that are similar to a child with autism.
Nobody who have a child with autism says that they would rather their child achieve measles or something (non-fatal, usually a relatively mild illness) than autism.

Just sayin'... that is an amazingly insensitive and ignorant thing to vote! Please don't ever say that you'd rather your child be autistic than anything because it is a slap in the frontage to parents of autistic children everywhere. My kids aren't autistic but I have close friends whose kids are and they would trade measles for autism any day of the week.

Anyway, to answer your actual question, since you can't force her to give a vaccination against her kid you have 2 choices.

You can either demand that she stay home, stay home, or attain over it. :-)
Do you get your boosters? If not your daughter is at a risk from you as well.
Just so you know, the odds of your daughter or your cousin's kids catching polio and diphtheria are nought unless they travel to Africa or Asia, and the odds of them catching measles, mumps, or rubella are very nearly zero, agree to alone them dying from it.
i wouldnt risk it. i have see cases on tv where peoples kids die from another unvaccinated child. vaccines it has been proven are not connected near autisim. theres no chance basically and vaccines are perfectly undisruptive or they would not do them. it was an issue that has been blown course out of proportion and blown up to scare people away from them. i would always give a vaccination against my child especially since they cant go to school without them.nor would my child be allowed around a non vaccinate child
You do realize that you could expose your child to any disease even if Vax'd? Just because you have a vaccine in your system making YOU immune, you can be exposed to it and carry it. YOU could offer your DD measles if the germ was around. Flu too. Vaccines don't even provide 100% immunity. Look at the kids getting Chicken pox even after getting the vax.

Ok, just because your relative didn't vax her kids doesn't clear them germ factories of doom. If they haven't been exposed, they can't spread it. Simple as that. You are way overboard.
Your cousins child is not a danger to your child. Unless your cousins child has polio, rubella, small pox etc., then your child is not at risk by any manner. I would not be worried in the least.

Well, my advice is to be honest. Be your true mommy self. Voice your concerns. Say you would rather your child not be in contact next to hers. Simple as that.

I have a friend whose child got a vaccine-preventable illness and wound up beside severe brain damage. She now goes to special background classes right alongside autistic kids.

If it makes you feel any better, I don't think you're one paranoid. I would never, ever, knowingly allow my child to play with a nonvaccinated child.
You need to ask for the vaccination records and/or blood titer results of everyone who will be at the Thanksgiving celebration. There are deeply of vaccines that kids get these days that were not given when adults be kids. Are they immune from previous natural infection, or do they need the vaccines now to protect your little one? You need to look into that.

Also, I do believe it is a good idea to hang on to one month old babies at home, but if you do ever take her out in public (grocery store, etc), you have need of to make sure that everyone in the store and who has be in the store in the past hour is current on adjectives vaccines.

Now for my serious advice: don't take a one month old to a generous gathering of people. If you do, realize your cousin's child is no more a threat than anyone else. Don't start any hard state of mind or family feuds.
