No. I went for a physical the other day and my dr asked me if I wanted one. I said no and he didn't even try to pressure me. I don't trust any of those vaccines.

Get one! It's even safe to get once you're pregnant. But if you get pregnant, and then get the flu, you're going to be miserable b/c there's very few meds you can safely take while pregnant.

Please get it! If you have some type of concern about getting it not pregnant than i imagine you would be less likley to get it when pregnant, which would be bad.

The risk of what can happen to baby(short and longterm) and pregnant mother if she gets then flu is way worse than getting the vaccine.

Re: FLU SHOT

I just got one last weekend. IMO, it's too big of risk to take not to get one. But everyone has to make the choice they are comfortable with.

Re: FLU SHOT

My ob/gyn recommended it bc if you get the flu while pregnant, there can be bad issues. Better safe than sorry :/

Is it safe to get the flu shot at any point during pregnancy? I was told yes, good at any time because it's not a live virus, but my RE said I may not want to get it in the first trimester.
