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
My doctor also recommended me getting the flu shot while pregnant ? I'm not sure if I want to or if i should ? It's all scary to me !! What do you ladies think ? Did you get the flu shot while pregnant ? Are there any risks? Or should I wait ? I'm so scared of taking anything while pregnant , much less getting this shot.. He said it isn't mandatory , just recommended.
Flu shot
Is anyone getting a flu shot? Every time I get one, I get the flu really bad. The years I don't get the shot, I am fine. My on strongly recommends I get one before the baby gets here. I didn't get one when my son was born. I'm torn. Don't know what I should do!!!
How many of you moms opted out of getting the flu shot while pregnant? My doctor suggested I get one but I don't want one.
IUI Monday!!
So today I went in for my routine bloodwork and ultrasound, and found out that I have three follicles at 17mm! Plus another two at 15mm. When leaving the clinic my FS said to take another dose of gonal-f and come back tomorrow to check to see how big they got and that we would do the iui on Wednesday. Well, after getting home, taking my gonal-f and going out to shovel snow (lol) I get a call saying that I am SURGING!!! I haven't ovulated on my own, or even come close to it in years...
Flu shot is necessary??
I took my son to his new pediatrician yesterday. I loved her! Except for one thing. She said to go back in 4 months so my son gets his flu shot. I told her we don't get the flu shot and she said he has to because I'm having a baby soon and that's what's best. Really? He got the tdap and I'm getting the tdap in two weeks but is the flu shot really necessary? I've always been against getting it. What are your thoughts?
with u never have had one before. I would refuse it. u don't know how u react to them
