As a prospective parent, you must decide whether or not to get you and your child vaccinated. Vaccines have been providing protection from infectious diseases for many generations. And can continue doing so into the future. Having the right information will help you decide what is right for you and your baby.
The benefits of vaccination start as early as pregnancy. You can protect your baby from serious infectious diseases before they’re even born. Serious diseases have declined in recent years, mainly because so many children have been vaccinated. But as increasing numbers of people now choose not to vaccinate their children, or not to take all of the available vaccines, diseases such as mumps, measles and whooping cough are on the increase.
It’s normal to have doubts or questions, particularly with everything that appears in the media about vaccinations. This is why it’s good to be properly informed. Talking to family, such as parents and grandparents, can also help. Have you done this already?
