Breast milk & vaccines

Warning! Hot topic that I'm not looking to debate. We all do what's best for our own families & that's Ok by me! 

I've seen this article posted a bunch recently so I had to finally stop & read it. I found this bit interesting: "Do they not realize what they have stumbled upon? In demonstrating that breastmilk counters the live vaccine, they’ve shown that breastmilk counters the virus."

HOWEVER, further digging took me to the CDC site & the actual information is much different from the opinion article that has everyone getting their panties all bunched. Glad I had some reading time while driving back home, lol 

"Breastfeeding does not appear to diminish immune response to rotavirus vaccine. Infants who are being breastfed should be vaccinated on schedule."
