i had the vaccine at 24 wks and me and baby are both fine , i would wait till your out of the first trimester if you can just caus if there are risks to the baby these will decrease the older the baby gets

I think its a very personnel decision, I did not have it and I do have my reasons why.

Try researching the 2 different jabs you can have and how much they have both been tested and see what you come up with.

It's something you have to research and decide for yourself. Mere mortals like us can tell you which way to go!

You'll get some women claiming it does no harm and cite ''scientific evidence'' why, and you'll have other women saying it does or can do harm, and cite ''scientific evidence'' why, so in the end it's really down to which side you want to believe and go with, and it truly is a personal decision.

i got it, as for me the risks of the jab were nothing to the risks if we got swine flu- but like the other ladies have said- its a very personal decision, dont let ANYONE pressure you either way.
