Seeking Alternative Vaccination Schedule

Updated on July 21, 2008

I have looked at the CDC schedule for vaccination in which they pile on five or six vaccinations at once which in my eyes makes it difficult to narrow down a problem if the child has a reaction. I have heard of alternative vaccination schedules which spreads these out, does anyone know where I can find an example of this schedule?

Thanks in advance

What can I do next?

I used the schedule recommended in The Vaccination Book by Dr. Sears. Basically, he splits the shots up so my daughter gets 2 shots per month instead of 4-5 (but she still is always current on her vaccinations, I just do nurses visits for the other ones)..and he doesn't recommend some shots until they are much older. I also spoke with my Dr. who is going to split up the MMR shots...but she said Drs need time to order it so it's worth mentioning. There is some advice on the site www.askdrsears.com, and most local libraries carry the book! Hope it helps...

I also go by the Vaccine BOok by Dr. Sears. He's very concise and pro vaccination just being very careful.

I just asked my doctor if my son can get one shot once a month and she agreed to that. The first 2 series of shots he had the normal way and he had a high fever and I did not feel goos at all. Now, I't been great, he never gets a fever or a reaction, and ot makes me feel so much better-A. :-)
