Vaccines while pregnant.

[Dest_777]

How many of you already mothers or mothers to be have gotten the Tdap or whooping cough vaccine while pregnant? How do you feel about them? My mother is against all those vaccines for she never got them done while pregnant with all four of us. I've always been paranoid when it came to vaccines even before my pregnancy. I just feel uneasy with them :/

I will be getting both the Tdap and the flu vaccine later on in my pregnancy. most of what you find online isn't reliable information and I believe this is the best informed decision I can make.

I got the tdap and was completely fine, just sorenfor a few days

Thank you ladies for all your input!:) i have been doing some research of my own and have decided I won't be doing the vaccine while pregnant. There's still so much I want to learn about this subject as well.

I asked this question about a week ago and since then I have done some research  and I found that there isn't any proof that the vaccine actually reaches the baby while a woman is pregnant and the scientists and the doctors are assuming that the benefit outweighs the risk and do not let mother's know the risk are. There are a lot of should's and possibly's but no for certain's or even 75,80 99 percent. I have decided not to get the vaccine while pregnant.

I scrapped my leg falling down an escalator so I happened to have the tdap done one week before I conceived I refused to have another one during my pregnancy considering I had one 8 months ago the drugs are in your system for 3-5 years having another one in less than a year is overkill in my opinion

If youve ever had any adverse effects with vaccines i do not reccommend. A lot of places are recommend to give to pregnant ladies or soon after birth since theres been an outburst. I got mine around 30 weeks. :)
I also had the flu shot but im pretty sure i couldve gone without that onr. Lol

Whooping cough is so dangerous for babies and its on the rise in the U.S. I would rather prevent it then watch my baby in pain. I never get thebfpu shot because me and my husband react weird to it. I got the whooping cough vaccine at my 30wk appt

I got the whooping one done last week my mum thesame she didnt with 4 kids but for me I got them done there there for a reason but it totally up to you

I don't do vaccines like flu shots, whooping cough etc. I am almost 30,and never had one  and this is my 4th baby non of my kids have had a flu shot. I think its your decression. You just need to device what you want personally for me I just don't and I won't get them for my babies eirher . We are perfectly healthy.

I got the flu shot but was told to get whooping cough once i have had him.

[Draevin2014]

I received the flu shot last month & the tetanus shot today. For me personally if it'll be best for my unborn baby & myself I'm all up for it. I don't think the doctor would want you to have it unless its harmful for both you & baby.

I got mine in the hospital after i had my son.
