Have you had the flu vaccine ?

Question

Answer

Yes, before pregnancy. I am required at work to get one and I prefer to be protected. I work medical. I test the flu daily. I know when flu season is hitting and how bad it can get. I would rather keep me and my baby as healthy as possible as well as my other two boys. I do not want to chance a full blow flu while pregnant, especially since I am around it all the time during the season. Plus, I never have had the flu when I recieved the vaccine. It can pop up even with the vaccine but not as severe.

Answer

This is the first year I haven’t gotten the flu vaccine and the first year I haven’t gotten the flu so far.

Answer

it’s weird to me that they force pregnant women

Answer

It marked on mine planning on it. But I am not. I am 30 I have never had the flu and never had the shot and don't plan on it.

Answer

I will be getting it once it’s closer to flu season in Australia. The flu vaccine usually isn’t available until March/ April. I make sure I get the flu vaccine every year because my sister has a high risk of catching diseases due to the cancer she had as a baby.

Answer

I got it before getting pregnant. Over Christmas the flu went through my husband's family, he got a light case despite getting the vaccine, but I didn't get it at all! Definitely worth it for both of us (he got sick but was only really out of commission for one day)

Answer

No freaks me out to put metals into my system. and yes we will most likely vaccinate once baby is born but I don’t see the need during pregnancy

Answer

I’ll 100% not be getting it. I don’t get it when I’m not pregnant, and I certainly won’t while carrying a baby.
