Re: Did anyone deny the Hep B shot in the hospital?

I did

Over and over again. I said it to the nurse in the room with me at my c/s, the nurses when I walked in, the anastheologist (Sp), the doctor, the assistant, pretty much anyone who would hear me.

Then I told hubby more than once, make sure they do NOT give her any shots. There was one shot I allowed and that was it. I told my Dad to watch too. NO ONE was giving her a shot unless I knew about it. And I made it clear my opinion was NO.

Sounds over the top but it was my first and I refused to allow her to be a push pin for needles.

I denied it, and signed the waiver-our pediatrician is going to give it to DS at his 1 month checkup.

For DD I didn't because I didn't know any better. For DS, my made ped made it a point to tell me to decline and get it at his appt at her office.
