Like many of you, I'm currently in the land of turmoil trying to decide whether or not to have the Swine Flu Jab. My main concerns are:
(a) I had a post viral illness a few years back & am concerned that it may flare up again with the jab;
(b) the jab could harm my baby.
As the news regularly reports on pregnant women who have died due to the flu, I just wondered if any of you have had swine flu and, if so, how bad was it?

I had swine flu when i was 10 weeks, it was terrible. Took about 2 weeks to get me feeling half human again.

The swine flu jab has been quite debated on here, i wish i could give you more information on it. Am sure that alot of mners can do a better job then me on the subject.

It sadly falls to you to make the choice that feels right for you. Have you talked it through with your GP?

Sorry i couldn't help more, but it's been bumped for you.
