To Inject or Not
This is another issue that has come up in my studying the early vaccinations and shots. Until I did this research, I was going to go ahead with the vitamin K.
In cooperation with a "national standard," most, if not all states have mandated that U.S. hospitals routinely administer to all newborns a synthetic, fat-soluble vitamin K injection (generic name phytonadione) that exceeds an infant’s recommended daily dietary intake of the vitamin by 100 times.
Peer reviewed journals have linked large doses of vitamin K to childhood cancers and leukemia. Animal studies have linked large doses of vitamin K to a variety of conditions that include anemia, liver damage, kidney damage and death.
I understand the reasoning behind the K shot, there is a deficiency bleeding that occurs in newborns between 3-7 weeks that the K shot prevents. But exceeding the infant's intake by 100 times? Good grief, what are they trying to do. After further research, it seems best to really utilize the colostrum in breast milk which is rich in vitamin K and also, if concerned, use a liquid supplement. Here is another quote which is logical and well put:
Commonsensically, VKR poses the question, "...how could God (or nature)have erred so badly as to give all newborn babies only an infinitesimal fraction of their required vitamin K? Surely the human race could not have survived to this point if all newborns were born with this deficiency and none being administered at birth until very recently."(this information found here: Vitamin K)

Sigh. I need to just collect data, decide what we are not going to do, get liquid vitamin K on hand(or I will supplement while nursing) and be done with this. The most important thing is to sign that waiver to nix this CDC/big brother mandated junk before they get their hands on my newborn. See, I told you I get over-protective(with good reason). After the lies about vaccines I have been fed, I won't fall for it again. I had a normal child that woke up autistic after shots. That is criminal and won't happen again.
