Breastfeeding mamas: will you be getting the flu shot?

Question

Feel free to comment why or why not! Thanks!

Answer

I always get my flu shot, but especially this year since baby can’t get the flu shot until 6 months. At least if I get the shot, she will get some antibodies through breast milk and have some passive protection until she can get the snot herself. I’ve had the flu before and it is horrible, I can’t imagine a tiny baby having to fight that illness.

Answer

I did. It will give baby added protection. Also because it will decrease symptoms if I were to get it. Had the flu 3 weeks before I had my first and it was miserable. But it wasn’t as bad as a lot of people’s

Answer

I usually don't get one, but anything to minimize the chance of getting the little guy sick so young...

Answer

Yes! I have a preemie so I made sure to get it right away.

Answer

No because I am allergic to the shot
