: Help guys!!!!!
: I am in the middle of a cycle and I have a 6 month old son.
: This is the problem, he just got his polio vaccine booster, plus
: a couple other boosters. Well, vaccines have small amounts of live
: viruses in them to create immunity in a babys body. I was told
: that my son will shit out these live viruses for about a month
: after his shots. The virus is harmless to most people because
: it is in such small quantities but.... I heard old people and
: people with reduced immunities (i.e. the effects that steroids have
: on the immune system during a cycle) should avoid direct contact
: with the baby's feces. Does anyone have any info on this potential
: problem? AND NO I AM NOT JUST TRYING TO GET OUT OF CHANGING DIAPERS!!!
: Gotta grow...
Calm down!!! The changes in your immune system is slight, if you are the type that catches colds easily from other, then you'll continue to catch cold's, the change in you immune system on normal cycles of A.S. are not enough to cause any worries. People should always take care when changing diapers, washing your hands is a practice that you should already being doing regularly. Be careful and watch your back!!! Hulkster
