Most kids are up to date on the whooping cough vaccination unless their parents don't vaccinate!

Yessss. They should get them, especially the younger kids since I'm assuming they're older and in school. Just remember your baby won't get any vaccines until after the first few months, so its important for everyone to take precautions to keep not only themselves but baby healthy.
A simple cold at infancy can turn into something major.
