If i refuse my newborn his shots there’s a risk he might get sick. And if i let my newborn get all his shots, there’s a risk he might get autism. Which direction do i go?
The results of this review show that 3 of the 4 population-based studies28-29,32 to examine paternal age reported a significant association with risk of autism and ASDs. The fourth study31 also found that paternal age was older in fathers of case patients with autism compared with fathers of controls, although this relationship was statistically weaker in the adjusted analysis. Thus, advancing paternal age is consistently associated with increased risk of autism and ASDs.

I posted earlier about my 3 year old daughter who has speech problems and received some helpful advice. One particular reply had said that since I had her so old, not to be surprised if she is autistic. Does age help put a child at risk for autism?
My baby is 6 weeks old and scheduled for her first vaccinations in two weeks. I’ve read a lot about the link between vaccines and autism lately, and was looking for some more opinions. Does anyone know of the most recent data, have a personal experience, or just an opinion? thanks!
