Considering getting the Tdap vaccine during pregnancy — did you get it?

I havr

Yup just had mine done at 28 weeks

U def should get it. It's for u and the baby!!! Doesn't even hurt I promise

Yep just did mine yesterday at 28 weeks

@mommie_of2, Looking up a baby that has the whooping cough was enough to convince me to get it.

my doctor recommended it to me. so I did

My husband and I both got one. My doctor recommends it for both parents.

Ok, thanks everyone i believe I'll be getting it....too much stuff is happening with babies for me not to be cautious

I didn't get the option on if I wanted to decline it. I had the whooping cough as a baby though and from what family has told me about their experience of me having it, I wouldn't decline it.

Thanks @babyt16 i never have experienced it before & lucky my daughter never got it but i know its a serious thing.....your advice really helps alot

anytime. I just don't want someone else having the health issues I do. I know I don't remember having it but my breathing sucks now. and normally I am against vaccinations but this is one I ask you take the time to really consider getting it done.

Oh i am and thanks again

I just got mine yesterday! and I had it with both my prior pregnancies.

No side affects like soreness in your arm or anything @soon2bmomof3

my arm is a little sore but that's it.

I plan on getting it. I told my doctor today that I wanted it so they could go ahead and put it on file. The point of you getting it is to protect the baby for the first few months of its life before it can get its own vaccinations. Especially since family will be up in their face and can potentially pass whooping cough. My doctor told me his wife got the shot when she was pregnant and he highly recommends it to every pregnant woman in his care.

I got mine at 32 weeks and just had a sore arm for a couple days. Very much worth the benefits! It will give the baby immunity to whooping cough.

Thanks everyone 😃i really do appreciate all the feedback
