During pregnancy were you vaccinated for Tdap?

Question

pregnancy were you vaccinated for Tdap?" /> Talk to your Dr about vaccines for whooping cough. Is it safe? What was the outcome if you received the vaccine? How did your baby turn out? Please elaborate.

Answer

I got a tDap shot at 28 weeks. I'm currently 38 weeks. My arm was sore for a couple days but other than that, absolutely nothing changed movement wise. Baby has been and currently is measuring perfectly and moves all day.

Answer

I got it plus my SO and all our family members. Our arms were a little sore but no major reactions and my daughter is just fine! I think her getting whooping cough would be worse then us having to get the vaccine.

Answer

Skipped it. It hasn't been studied to see if it's safe in pregnancy and it's rated as a category c drug. You can get it right after birth.

Answer

I've gotten it with both my sons and I'm expecting our third and plan on the same. It's completely safe & is best for mom AND baby! My sons had no problems at all and are perfectly healthy. They are now 4 & 3. Your arm will be sore where you get it but that's it. I don't understand people's fears of vaccines? It's only to HELP your child (and yourself) from terrible sicknesses.

Answer

I went ahead and voted yes because I will be at 28 weeks. It's safe, and a very good idea to get. Pertussis is extremely dangerous for infants, they can violently cough so hard they lose oxygen and their lips turn blue, or even suffer brain damage, and it typically lasts 6-10 weeks. You want all the protection for your baby you can get.

Answer

Yes, it's safe. It's really the one vaccine that my DR has STRONGLY recommended. Whooping cough is no joke. If you can protect your baby before they're born, that's a win for me. I had diarrhea (sorry TMI) for the day after I got the vaccine. That was my only side effect.

Answer

I got the vaccine, my arm was sooo sore afterwards I had to put a hot towel it.

Answer

Got it at 32 weeks and if u get it in dominant arm it's not bad. Arm wasn't sore it was fine. No side effects.

Answer

I got it... caused horrible kidney issues for me. It's not safe for me, so everyone telling you it's safe may not be giving you the correct information for YOU.

Answer

I got it. They told me my arm might be really sore for a few days, but it wasn't at all unless I pressed on where they stuck the needle. I had no problems after receiving it, and my baby was born perfectly healthy 😊
