im not trying to make it a debate either. What i am trying to do is put a few things in perspective for you (what is and isn't important, and what is portrayed all your life via various media avenues that just ends up making certain people a lot of money)

in the US.. you can get a flu shot right at the airport, or CVS or any other random location and that isn't the case in Canada.. yet.

im not going to try and advocate against a doctors advice. What i will advocate however, is women have been giving birth for longer than we have had a species for, and if i were in your shoes i'd go with the 'expert opinion'
