Whooping Cough Vaccine

[Nonstop94]

I’ve been really stupid and forgot to book my whooping cough vaccine and now I’m 33 weeks, I’ve seen everywhere that you can have it between 20-32 weeks and I’ve missed the window by a week, completely my fault I’ve been so hectic and manic I forgot to phone to book it with my GP, can I have it now a week later or will I miss out on having it now? I feel so awful about it, it was an accident 😩

Hey, Pretty sure that's the ideal timeframe but the give it anytime until birth. Its better before 32 to ensure it has time to reach baby so sooner the better I imagine.
Just up in the morning and explain. I am sure you can get booked in soon!

Just seen this on the NHS website, so you should be good

“Pregnant women can help protect their babies by getting vaccinated – ideally from 16 weeks up to 32 weeks pregnant. If for any reason you miss having the vaccine, you can still have it up until you go into labour.”
