So seeing all you other ladies saying how painful the whooping cough jab was i thought surely they…

I could barely move my arm for a week after and then it was still sensitive for another week after that!! xx

its horrid but i really dont understand why this particular jab hurts so much more than others 😕

I think it probably depends on the person doing the needle because I was a little worried about having it done because of what women have said and I don't mind needles. But the nurse that did mine was brilliant I had no bruising and I didn't even feel the needle go in 😳

Mine wasn't too painful at the time but I had a dead arm for a few days after and a lump on my arm for more than a week 😑 x

Haha yeah mine still hurts but what's worse is that I felt feverish in the evening and felt so poorly the next 2 days. I'm still feeling warm and the weather's not helping, the swelling on my arm has gone down a bit but it's still sore. 😬

mine was a little sore going in but not too bad, then that night i had a horrible reaction to it and ended up with migraine and sickness, being dizzy and hot flushes, it was horrible. pain in my arm lasted 3 days couldnt sleep on my left side at all. worst injection ever 😡

Got mine on Monday!!😁

@titch.82, id recommend having in the arm on the side you dont sleep on. 😀

I had mine on Tuesday and was fine, it started aching a bit on Tuesday night and was a little sore on Wednesday but then was fine and now I dont feel it at all. I hope your arm feels better soon xx

Not looking forward to this one...! When are we meant to have it? I'm generally pretty okay with needles but this doesn't sound okay at all! Hope it feels better for you soon xx

@newmommyapril, they recommend between 28 and 32 weeks xx

ahh okay, a little wait for me then. Can prepare myself for it 🙈 thanks @tam77 xx

im only 17 weeks and my midwife said to have it now. after reading this im not sure i want it now 🙈🙈🙈

I'm having mine at 20 weeks at my midwives advice, dreading it!! 🙈🙈 xx

That's a good tip @tam77 I didn't think of that!!x

@titch.82, me either so now im finding it hard to sleep on other side 😅 zxx
