Hi all - just wondering what your GPs/consultants/midwives have said about the swine flu vaccine, and whether or not you should have it while pregnant. I went to see my consultant the other day, and she told me (I quote) " I will not let you have it - you cannot have a live vaccine when you are pregnant". Now, she's actually had the jab herself, so she's not one of those anti vaccine people, but I was a bit surprised that she thought it was dangerous when the government is stating that the jab will be given to pregnant women as a matter of priority. Do you think that the government is just weighing up the risk/cost of unknown adverse affects on unborn babies versus the known cost of dealing with lots of very sick pregnant women?....and deciding that it's more cost effective and probably will save more lives to push the latter? I'm a bit freaked out by it all TBH....thought i could just get the jab and relax, but am not worrying. What do the rest of you think?
