Hi all,
I'm 23+1 and had a routine check at the hospital today. The mw told me I should book an appt for Whooping cough and flu vaccines at around 28 weeks. Obviously I'd do anything to protect me baby if needed, but I've heard lots of conflicting info re vaccines (i.e. they may cause developmental delays, autism and what not). I understand it's only a risk, and possibly for some women the benefit would outweigh it. I'm not working atm, and spend the most of my days at home or having a walk in the park or doing grocery shopping. Am I at risk of this cough and flu? What are people's general view re vaccines in pregnancy? Would love to hear your opinions to make a decision.
Thanks in advance
