I had the flu vac (combined) 2 days ago, am 39 weeks pg, so the newborn should get immunity from me.

I'm wondering about DD though, she's 3.5, she has between 0 and 3 feeds a day still, atm she's just getting a little colostrum, but there'll be milk again once the baby arrives, will she get any protection or is she not feeding enough for it to protect her?

I asked the nurse but she didn't know/thought I was mad to still be feeding DD...
