Anyone had the flu shot while they're pregnant? I've never got one in my life and I'm supposed to get one tomorrow at my appointment. I pass out when I get shots so I'm freaking out 😭



You can refuse it if you want. I didn't get a flu shot when my Ob asked me about it
I got it when I was 15 weeks along & it didn't hurt at all. I only did it because the one year I didn't, I got influenza A & B at the same time & it was the most horrible thing I've ever experienced. Not something I would want to go through again, especially being pregnant!
My best advice is to let your ob know about your fainting episodes to avoid getting hurt incase you faint and look away while getting it. I got mines i was sore but thats all
Ok! Thank you! I'm just a big baby! Scared of needles! @lifewith_temiya
@tiffr5, I Dont think it'll affect you not getting it I personally think its better to wait to get it judging my experience
I had mine around 20 weeks. Didn't make me sick or anything.
What are the risks if you don't get it? What would happen if I got the flu? Mann abellemaesmommy @lifewith_temiya
My doctor told me it was unnecessary. I didn't plan on getting it to begin with, but you can refuse it if you dont want to get it
I got it when I was pregnant with my first and had horrible side effects from it because the shots were expired. I had to be put in the hospital at 5 months pregnant, But that was 2 years ago. It could be different now.
@tiffr5, kinda in the arm but u be fine
Did it hurt really bad? I freak out over shots. @pro ncessziyahmommy @lakree214
I got it I was totally fine arm was just sore for 2 days
with u never have had one before. I would refuse it. u don't know how u react to them
