Measles Misery

Posting here mostly to vent, and also maybe try to calm myself down, but is anyone else becoming increasingly more upset by these measles outbreak??! My LO will be 6 months in a few weeks, and shortly after that I had planned to take him on his first flight—only 2 hours, to my home state for my niece’s bridal shower. It would be the first time a lot of my family would be able to meet him. I have been so excited for this, albeit anxious of course, as I have never flown with an infant. Now there have been confirmed measles cases in children where I live, and I reached out to my pediatrician. She told me she is very worried about measles, and also that my son could receive an extra dose at 6 months, but the best option is to leave him here with my husband. As sad as I am to not have him with me and have my family meet him, I think I should leave him home, and it’s just so frustrating and scary that any of us with babies have to live our lives this way BECAUSE WE HAVE AN EFFECTIVE VACCINE THAT PREVENTS THIS IN THE FIRST PLACE!
