No side effects. Infants had been having increasing cases of whooping cough in my area and a lot get it from their mother. I got the vaccine and my arm was sore for a while but no side effects. I had a girl give birth 3 weeks after me and refused it and her daughter got whooping cough ad was very ill and had to be hospitalized. Mine never got it.

I got it way before I was preggo as for a physical exam and it was a little sore for about 4 days. And it was uncomfortable to sleep on it. Make sure they give it to you on your nondominant arm.

Any side affects?? I'm always very conservative when it comes to vaccines. I don't want all this new crap in my or my sons body if it hasn't been studied enough. Im fine with the vaccines that have been around for 20+
