NewBorn Birthing Plan CONTINUED [GENERAL INFORMATION APPLIES TO MOST STATES.]
For those who are planning a hospital birth but want to evade invasive
routine post natal procedures such as a Hep B shot, vitamin K
injection, newborn screening, or the application of silver nitrate in
the newborn's eyes, a very specific birthing plan must be submitted to
the hospital in advance of the birth. Hospital staff must be informed,
in advance, of your needs, wants and desires where your baby and
birthing experience are concerned. The same applies to midwives.
Steps:
Create the Birthplan. Or modify one of our ours to fit your state laws and any other personal circumstances. (see below)
Sign the birthplan in front of a Notary.
Submit the birth plan to your hospital or midwife. Keep a couple extra copies in case plans change.
Make sure affected parties (doctors, nurses, etc) understand your requirements and wishes.
Plan on having one or two trusted persons stay with the mother and
child to watch the child at all times while in the hospital, so no
unwanted injections are given the baby.
The birth plan arrangements and letter should be turned in before delivery date.

GENERAL INFORMATION (Medical Refusal Forms and Affidavit)
Although the vitamin k injection and erythromycin are not vaccines, PAVE sometimes is asked whether these procedures are required by law. A North Carolina parent sent me the following information which she obtained from her investigation:
I phoned the legal department of the Maternity Center and they were unable to tell me which statute they were basing their requirements on. I explained to one of their solicitors that their maternity nurse told me I would be reported to DSS (Dept. of Social Services) for not complying as the procedure was mandated by NC law. The lawyer I spoke with said she could not 'advise' me on the topic. I told her I didn't want advice, I wanted to know what law required me to have the procedures performed on my child. She told me to call my obstetrician ... she was clueless.
I then called the Mecklenburg County Department of Youth and Family Services. This is what I have learned:
There are no NC laws mandating that a newborn receive the erythromycin eye treatment and vitamin K injection. However, the hospital can turn in or report a parent to DSS for not complying with the hospital's policies; for example, the vitamin K injection, vaccination, etc. If the child is not in a life threatening situation, ergo the child does NOT require the treatment to save their life, DSS will not accept the complaint. Basically, nothing will be
done about it. The hospital can complain all they want, but no action will be taken as it is a parent's right to choose or decline any treatment for their child so long as it is not a life or death situation. So, it is up to me whether or not my child has any of these procedures performed. It is not law, it is simply the hospital's policy. The hospital maintains the right to notify DSS and file a complaint for investigation but DSS will not accept the complaint or investigate the family/parent.
I am outraged that the Maternity Center would manipulate their semantics in an attempt to pressure parents into having 'unnecessary' procedures performed. I am considering writing a letter to the hospital administrator to formally complain. Most people would have accepted the nurse's word that it was law and, by fear of being 'reported' to DSS, gone through with the procedure. This is unfair. Parents have the right to be informed, truthfully, of their rights.
I hope you will find this information useful!
PAVE wrote a letter to Carolinas Medical Center regarding the legality of the erythromycin drops and vitamin K injection, and Suzanne Freeman, president, replied. She said
"...the North Carolina Administrative Code requires in Section 15A N.C.A.C. 19A.0204(f) that all newborn infants be treated prophylactically against gonococcal ophthalmia neonatorum in accordance with the STD Treatment Guidelines of the U.S. Public Health Service. Such treatment guidelines include administering erythromycin to
the eyes of all newborns no later than one hour after birth." [Eye drops *are* mandatory but NOT vitamin k or newborn screening.]
She said, "Vitamin K shots are not required by state law, but they are recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics as the standard of care for newborns."
If you would like to look up details on the vitamin K injection in the Physician's Desk Reference, here is some information from a registered nurse:
AquaMEPHYTON Injection(Phytonadione) is how it's found in the PDR.
The oral and the injectable are very much the same, except for the
properties which make it a tablet. If a mom has a diet with
good Vit. K intake (eggs, alphalfa sprouts, etc.) then there would
be no reason to consider it.

1. Make an informed choice as far ahead of birth as possible.
2. See the Black box warning in the
FDA Package Insert for the Injection.
3. Know your options: Pre-Birth Diet, Oral Vitamin K, or synthetic Vitamin K Injection.
GENERAL INFORMATION Vitamin K
Vitamin K Injection...
The Question of Vitamin K for Newborns
"Essentially all human infants are born with very low blood levels of vitamin K and, since low amounts of vitamin K crosses into breast milk, levels remain low for several weeks after birth in breastfed babies. The purpose of this natural, universal experience of low vitamin K levels in newborns is not known. ..."
"Mouse and epidemiologic studies indicate that the neonatal “deficiency” of vitamin K, which promotes cell turnover, may actually protect the developing fetus from damaging substances that “escape the primary placental screen.”
Read the rest of the article here:
http://www.thevaccinereaction.org/
The prescribing information on Vitamin K shot states that fatalities are an adverse reaction according to the Merck pharmaceutical package insert.
Warning
"The injectable form of vitamin K can rarely cause severe (sometimes fatal) allergic reactions when given by injection into a muscle or vein.
Therefore, vitamin K should be injected into a muscle or vein only when it cannot be given by injection under the skin or taken by mouth, or when your doctor has judged
that the benefit is greater than the risk. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience symptoms of an allergic reaction such as rash, itching, swelling, dizziness, or trouble breathing."
Potential exists for the newborn to experience hypersensitivity to any component of this medication.
Each milliliter contains: Phytonadione .. 2 mg or 10 mg
Inactive ingredients:
Polyoxyethylated fatty acid derivative .... 70 mg
Dextrose................................... 37.5 mg
Water for Injection, q.s. .................. 1 mL
Added as preservative: Benzyl alcohol .... 0.9%
Although oral vitamin K is not licensed for use as a drug by the FDA,
drops for oral administration are available. Typically, one drop
contains 2 mg. of vitamin K. Contact a midwife in your area, or a
birthing supply company (such as
birthwithlove.com),
or Scientific Botanicals (206 527-5521) where your health care provider can order liquid vitamin K directly.
Here's another much safer alternative that your chiropractor or naturopath can order for you.

Hepatitis B Vaccine
Most states now require the Hepatitis B vaccine for newborns. Many parents are also cornered by emergency room
personnel during accident visits. Hospitals nationally are under
pressure to utilize every opportunity to score a "hit." If your
pediatrician understands your views, get him involved with the
hospital. As a last resort, protect your right to receive quality care
in by asking hospital personal to sign the following waiver. Usually,
you'll never find anybody in the hospital to sign this simple form, but
you well get relief from demands to vaccinate your child.
"I certify that the (Name of Vaccine)________ vaccine being
administered to (Name of Child)_________ is free from all known and yet
unknown zoonotic or human viruses or viral fragments and will not cause
acute or chronic illness in the recipient due to viral contamination or
as a reaction to the components of this vaccine. (Signature of
Physician and Date)_________."
If you take your new baby to an MD as opposed to a naturopath and/or
chiropractor, please be aware of and careful of any forms you sign.
Our WARNING
below is about signing (some) state approved and AAP created forms. See
this letter from our director, Ingri Cassel, before you consider
signing waiver forms.
WARNING!
To ALL who choose to partially vaccinate or NOT vaccinate their
children:
We (here in Idaho) are hearing more reports of schools and daycares across our state not
honoring legal and valid vaccine exemptions.
The following article contains very important information as to why you
do NOT want to sign AAP's (state adopted) exemption form:
http://childhealthsafety.wordpress.com/ ...
Older letter regarding exemptions in Idaho (similar to many states today)
Dear VacLib Members and Friends -
Wanted to give you all a heads up on state issued exemption forms. I
haven't had to deal with this personally for several years, and I
always crossed out sentences or clauses, and often adding some of my
own, before signing their exemption of medical release type of forms.
When Donna Carrillo began to diligently search out existing exemption
forms and posting them, I read over a couple of them and encouraged
people to make up their own whenever possible. After having a "closer
encounter" with such a form - a form provided to the state of Idaho by
the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention and used by licensed Idaho daycares, I was shocked into
the VERY REAL danger of signing these forms without changing them
significantly.
Any form one affixes their initials to, dates and affixes their
signature to at the end is a LEGAL document. All statements prior to
your signature you must agree to fully OR restrict your signature to
say that you are signing under TDC - threat, duress, and coercion. The
form that my daughter was told she needed to fill out for this daycare
is posted here:
ChildCareExemptForm.pdf.
On this form, she crossed out all the "nots" and in her personal
statement she further clarified that she understands fully the risks of
vaccinating her child.
I have since found out that most public schools and daycares in other
states also use a similar form. Basically, by initialing and signing
this form as is, you are admitting to understanding that "vaccine
preventable" diseases are extremely deadly and ALSO admitting to
negligence for willfully denying your son/daughter the life saving
protection that vaccines offer. These forms are MEANT to not only be
intimidating but to catch the legally ignorant off guard. This is very
serious to me since all states have adopted the federally funded Child
Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act which gives states the right to
literally steal your children for up to 48 hours -- the time they have
to prove child neglect OR abuse.
If it were ME, I would insist that they accept a form that I provide
them since it satisfies the law. If there are any problems or they
insist on me using their form, I would cite the law and ask the school
or daycare provider where it actually says in state statute that this
particular form is the only form that will satisfy the law. Since your
parental rights are at stake here, it is best to be vigilant and err on
the side of being overly cautious.
A modified AAP form is posted here that you may wish to use with your doctor: AAPmodified.htm
Not all State employees are aware of the law and many exhibit the
Hitler Complex. Take a firm stand. Some individuals have had difficulty
getting the required forms. Such arrogance on the part of State
employees should be reported to the Director of your state Department
of Health.

Childcare and School Immunization Requirements
Most states now require the Hepatitis B vaccine for newborns. Many parents are also cornered by emergency room personnel during accident visits. Hospitals nationally are under pressure to utilize every opportunity to score a "hit." If your pediatrician understands your views, get him involved with the hospital. As a last resort, protect your right to receive quality care in the following manner. (Usually, you'll never find anybody in the hospital to sign this simple form):
"I certify that the (Name of Vaccine)________ vaccine being administered to (Name of Child)_________ is free from all known and yet unknown zoonotic or human viruses or viral fragments and will not cause acute or chronic illness in the recipient due to viral contamination or as a reaction to the components of this vaccine. (Signature of Physician and Date)_________."
If you do get a signature, hold on to the form.

Please be aware that there is NO OFFICIAL STATE FORM in North Carolina. According to a former director of the NC Dept. of Immunization, all a parent (or person seeking to claim an exemption) has to do is "write down on a sheet of paper that the immunization laws of North Carolina are contrary to their religious beliefs, sign it, and turn it in" to the person requesting their immunization records. Homeschooling parents should keep the form in their home with their homeschool documentation. No matter what an uninformed official may tell you, by law you DO NOT have to belong to any organized religion to claim your religious exemption, and the signature of a representative of a religious order is NOT required to obtain an exemption. It must only be your genuine, bona fide religious belief.
This AFFIDAVIT below also can be used for colleges.
AFFIDAVIT
I, _________________________, Sui Juris, Free, Natural Flesh and Blood Human Being, state Citizen of the Iowa Republic affirm: Be it known to all courts, governments, and other parties that:
Being a person of Strong Christian Morals, it is against my Deep, Sincerely Held, Religious Convictions to accept the injection of any foreign substance into my Body. This includes, but is not limited to, any and all, Vaccinations, Shots, Tests for Diseases, Oral Vaccines, Epidermal Patches and in any other way that Live or Killed Bacterium, Viruses, Pathogens, Germs, or any other Microorganisms, may be introduced into or upon my body.
This written statement to exempt myself from the immunization requirement, and the Mantoux (PPD) Tuberculin Test, because I hold genuine and sincere personal religious beliefs which are inconsistent with these medical procedures and experimentation. The practice of vaccination and the injection of any foreign substance is contrary to my conscientiously held religious beliefs and practices, and violates the free exercise of my religious principles.
The attenuated virus used to produce the Rubella vaccine (RA27/3) was obtained from an aborted fetus and then cultivated on fetal tissue from another aborted baby (WI-38), and is also in the rubella portion of the MMR-II vaccine. The Chickenpox vaccine containing WI-38, MRC-5 and Hepatitis-A vaccine (MRC-5) were obtained from human babies that were electively aborted. A conflict arises because my religious convictions are predicated on the belief that all life is sacred. God's commandment "Thou Shall Not Kill" applies to the practice of abortion. The acceptance of these vaccines promotes abortion and violates the Sixth Commandment of "Thou Shall Not Kill". The Hepatitis-B vaccine protects against a disease that is only transmitted through multiple sexual partners or street IV drug users. The acceptance of this vaccine promotes sexual promiscuity and immoral behavior in direct contradiction to the teachings of my faith.
I, {First and Last name}, am exercising my rights under the First Amendment of the US Constitution and N.C.G.S. 130A-157 to receive Religious Exemption from Vaccination & testing.
Applicable law has been interpreted to mean that a religious belief is subject to protection even though no religious group espouses such beliefs or the fact that the religious group to which the individual professes to belong may not advocate or require such belief. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 as amended Nov. 1, 1980; Part 1605.1-Guidelines on Discrimination Because of Religion.
Our legal rights are guaranteed by the free exercise clause of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Recent court decisions have upheld the rights of individuals seeking exemptions from immunizations based upon personal and religious reasons. On the U.S. Supreme Court level in Frazee V. Illinois Dept. of Security, 489 U.S. 829, it was found that a state may not deny an exemption simply because a person is not a member of a formal religious organization.
The Lord Jesus Christ and Our Creator are the only source of protection of my body and that of my family that I can accept.
I affirm that vaccination & injections of any foreign substances and proteins conflict with my religious beliefs as stated above. Therefore, I would request that you accommodate my religious beliefs and practices by exempting me from any vaccination or injections of any kind.
Rest assured that my family and I do practice a form of immunization that keeps our immune systems strong and is in keeping with Biblical principles.
