Gm ladies.. Does anyone take pertussis vaccine through pregnancy.. My doctor told me to take it but I'm afraid π
I just got the TDAP shot (tetanus and pertussis vaccine) I definitely recommend getting it. it lowers your risk of giving your baby whooping cough. I personally told my friends and family that if they didn't get the TDAP, that they weren't allowed to hold my son when he's born.
I've seen babies get whooping cough and it is not good at all. You getting TDAP gives them some of your antibodies until they are able to get their own vaccine. I highly suggest you get it!
