My doctor said the mom is the most important person to get tdap, as long as she gets it the babies are protected until they are able to get their shots... the doctor also told me that babies who get whopping cough most likely got it from their mom

@girlmom., very true!!!

@kalidream, Thank you so much!!

@babybump21 if they have had it in the last 10 years they don't have to get it again. But really what's $35 if it's going to be safer for baby

@babybump21, no problem. Let me know if you have any more questions. I’m a pediatric nurse so I just might be able to help.

@babybump21, Haha I don’t have friends. I didn’t let anyone come near her until she was about 2 months old.

@kalidream, got it, thank you so much!! I didn’t know that it lasted ten years, I’m a first time mom so I’m still learning everything!!

@babybump21, yes.. the vaccine is effective for 10 years. If they are not sure if they got it in the past 10 years it does not hurt to get another one. The vaccine is given routinely every 10 years or every pregnancy.

@inked., did you make anyone else get it like friends and stuff?

@kalidream, so if they got it within the past 10 years it’s still effective?

@girlmom., my mom doesn’t even want to get it, she says she doesn’t get sick so what’s the point 😒 like really? I have a huge family so I just didn’t know if every single person should or just the grandparents and my bf and I, thanks!!

I agree. Everyone who will be around baby should get it... unless they know for a fact that they have had it in the last 10 years. Whooping cough can be fatal for infants.

Everyone that was going to be around baby. If they didn't, they didn't hold my baby. I didn't give no fs.

I made anyone that planned to be around her at all get it. My FIL, MIL, husband, and mom.

The ones that's gonna be around the baby cause whooping cough for a infant is no joke
