Tdap..yes or no?

Question

My doctor is recommending the Tdap booster (I got my last booster in 2006). I understand the dangers of whooping cough, tetanus, etc. my concerns are these:
1. Tdap is a class C. Safety of class C drugs hasn’t been confirmed safe for pregnant women
2. Tdap booster contains formaldehyde and aluminum which can affect the baby’s brain
3. No long term effects studied. Booster has only recently (since 2012) been recommended for pregnant women. 
I’m really torn on what to decide. I know whooping cough can be deadly, but seriously all the negative side effects that the CDC does not disclose realty frightens me...

Answer

The whole point is so the baby gets anti bodies.

Answer

Do not get the tdap. Your baby isn’t protected from pertussis until they have 5 doses of dtap, which is almost at 4 years old. The little antibodies they do get, they can still get pertussis. The best route of protection is herd immunity and cocooning for the first three months. Make sure you get it right after birth and close family members get it. You are completely right, the amount of aluminum in the shot poses more risks than benefits. No vaccine company can get ethics approval to experiment on pregnant women. If you havent yet read the book “The vaccine-friendly plan” by Dr.Paul, it goes over which vaccines are actually affective and tell you how to space them out to minimize exposure to toxins to prevent neurological damage.

Answer

All of those concerns are meaningless compared to a dead baby. Getting the vaccine now is important because it will protect your baby until they are old enough to get the vaccine.

Answer

The Tdap is safe during pregnancy, it’s recommend every 10 years. People who are going to be around the baby should get it as well, if they haven’t with the 10 years.

Answer

I don’t get it because I am allergic to something in the shot , however , all of my children get it as scheduled for their vaccines . I also don’t give anyone in my house the flu shot . We have never got the flu .

Answer

You can get it after baby is born. I got mine right before I left the hospital.

Answer

Get it.

Answer

I always get the tdap on the hospital after delivering. Everyone is different though.

Answer

I did with both pregnancies.

Answer

I can't wait to politly say no thank you at the end of September..I go back in for my second glucose test that I don't want and may reject and then get to tell them no thank you to Tdap! Yay! My choice and everyone has their own opinion and choice that they can make for their own babies..I've seen what what vaxx can do with my own daughter and I will not ever be vaccinated nor have any of my children vaccinated again. I definitely will have faith and continue to let God protect my family and children.  For all of those getting the Tdap shot I hope and pray it goes well for you,💙🌈🙏🏽🕊️
