Stand For Health Freedom
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.

1. Make an informed choice as far ahead of birth as possible.

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.

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.
Black's Law Dictionary - Sixth Edition - the definition of Affidavit. This is the dictionary used by the American Bar Association and all
judges/magistrates/attorneys.
Affidavit - A written or printed declaration or statement of facts, made voluntarily, and confirmed by oath
or affirmation of the party making it, taken before a person having authority to administer such oath or affirmation.

Warning: Any affidavit we supply is a suggestion or template for you to modify to fit your beliefs or understanding of facts. The
"facts" are those of the person signing the affidavit.

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.
The ACCEPTANCE OF RESPONSIBILITY is imperative in exercising
your rights for legal exemptions from forced medical experimentation and legalized bioterrorism. DO be prepared to fight for your baby's rights!

Medical, religious exemptions: School Immunization Exemption Form from Vermont Department of Health
"Vermont’s School Immunization Regulations apply to any students in attendance at any public or
independent kindergarten, any elementary or secondary school and certain post-secondary schools."
Note: See the note below about changes. False advertising
some words in the Religious Exemption are clearly "advertising propaganda."
See Language below for suggestions.
Changes:
There were several changes made effective July 1, 2012.
Medical exemption form is no longer on the same form as the Philosophical and Religious exemption form. Now the Philosophical form no longer exists.
There was some language added to the Religious exemption form.
Many parents objected to the added language.
In November, the Vermont DOH relented and modified the requirements of what must be signed each year.
We suggest you may want to mark out some of the language on the exemption form.
Be on the alert for changes in the form.
See the NEWS and the Act 157 below for more information.
NEWS
November 29, 2012 Vt. vaccine exemption form relaxed after criticism
MONTPELIER, Vt. (AP) — The Vermont Health Department has softened a rule affecting parents who want to skip vaccinations for their children...
Parents now will only be required to say they have read the department's educational materials on vaccines, Dolan told the Legislative Committee on Administrative Rules.
They will have to sign a form each year that says:
"I have reviewed and understand the Required Parent Education Information developed by the Vermont Department of Health."
Committee members voted to accept the department's revised rules after the panel's chairman, Rep. Richard Marek, a Newfane Democrat and lawyer, said he believed the revisions described by Dolan addressed the constitutional concerns.
Article is no longer available. August 2018, the 2018-2019 Religious exemption form has the offensive language reinstated.

(3) If the person, or, in the case of a minor, the person’s parent or
guardian states in writing annually provides a signed statement to the school or

I have been given the opportunity to be vaccinated with hepatitis B vaccine, at no

understand that by declining this vaccine, I continue to be at risk of acquiring
hepatitis B, a serious disease. If in the future I continue to have occupational
exposure to blood or other potentially infectious materials and I want to be
vaccinated with hepatitis B vaccine, I can request and receive the vaccination
series at no charge to me.
