This week on Crunchy Moms Unfiltered, we’re diving into one of the biggest but least-explained public health changes that’s got parents everywhere talking — the new childhood vaccine schedule.Federal health officials recently overhauled the U.S. childhood vaccine recommendations, reducing the number of diseases for which routine shots are broadly recommended — dropping from 17 to 11. Instead of a one-size-fits-all schedule, many vaccines are now recommended only for high-risk children or left up to shared clinical decision-making between parents and doctors. The CDC says this aligns U.S. guidance with international peers, but pediatricians and medical groups are raising serious concerns about the lack of transparency, scientific review, and potential risks for kids. With so much fear, confusion, and conflicting info swirling around, we’re breaking down:•What actually changed in the vaccine schedule (and why parents are confused)•How this shift happened and who made the decision•The real responses from doctors, pediatricians, and families•What this means for your child’s health journeyAnd we’re especially excited because this is along time coming. We have some pretty BIG guest coming on with us to unpack all of this — answering the questions parents have been too afraid to ask.
