I have a son who just turned 1 this month and is due for his 1 year check-up soon. He's due for 6 vaccines on his next visit including MMR and I am very concerned about hearing all kinds of things about MMR in combination with other vaccines might cause autism. I know there hasn't been any official proof of any link between vaccines/MMR and autism, but we cannot deny that it happened to a lot of children. And I cannot help but be scared for my child. I am still going to vaccinate him, but will not allow the 6 vaccines to be given at the same time. Will ask the doctor to space them out, and will forgo MMR until he's over 2 years. I ask this question so I have an idea of how many out there has witnessed someone, a child who started out normally, but became autistic after receiving the MMR vaccine in combination with other vaccines. I know one, and he is my 2 year old nephew.
