SORRY!!!!! SWINE FLU AGAIN.. Who's NOT having the vaccine??


Is it just me that doesn't want it?? I got my letter through this morning and mum's moaning at me about having it and making me feel bad about the fact I DONT want to have it... Are there any other ladies here not having it and does it make me a bad person for not wanting it????

I turned it down. My MIL isnt impressed but my own Mum is pleased. Confirmed cases are dropping in my area according to my GP and he actually told me if I hadnt had it to just wait a while and see how things pan out. I'm pro vaccination but I dont see the point having it unnecessarily when you're pregnant. When I was offered it a few weeks ago, there was only Pandemrix available. If Celvapan had been offered then I might have taken it. As time goes by I am less and less inclined to.

My advice is check the state of play locally and decide what your personal risk is ie. work etc. Then go from there

Im not having it. Never had flu in my life, so not worth risking something I see as low risk with my baby.
