As the mother of a child who had frightening, bad reactions to several different vaccines (high fever, seizures, etc.), I think it is very possible that this baby is having a reaction to the vaccine. Maybe it is an allergy, and maybe it is something else, but I would think the absolute worst thing that could be done would be to take the baby off of his mother's milk and introduce the foreign substances in formula into his system, while he is sick! It sounds to me like it may be a case of a doctor not really knowing what to do, but just doing something, to avoid admitting that. I hope the baby has improved since this case was first posted, yesterday!
