Thanks, everyone, for your responses to the rubella thing. I’m not a fan of vaccination and so will not be doing any screening, immunising etc. I thought I just ought to check that the doctor wasn’t telling me something glaringly obvious. Loved the line to the Ob, re his rubella status, J

No, I don't think you're being harsh...it reminds me of the petty bureaucrat who claimed a couple of days ago she had been trying to ring me back (several months down the track, mind you) on my mobile number she got off my answering machine. Que? mobile number? I don't have a mobile phone, so

You wrote"Don't socilaise, don't eat the wrong foods, don't do anything that may stress your body and act like you are sick for 9 months so that dr's can look after you."   Then go into labour and we will give you as many chemicals as you like, as long as they are the ones WE approve of.

I had a similar conversation with an ob when I was pregnant with my 1st child.  It had turned into an disagreement and I turned the tables on him and asked him his own rubella status.  He, who was in contact with pregnant women almost every single day, had no idea of his own rubella status!!

Interesting arguement. Which supports rubella screening BEFORE pregnancy so that women can be immunised. The other value of rubella screening is to identify people who aren't immune so they can at least be immunised after pregnancy with the hope that they will be immune in their next pregnan
