Any pregnant women taken the swine flu shot?

I called my OB, so don’t tell me to call her and ask, I’m just looking for an opinion or for somebody who is pregnant and may have gotten the swine flu shot already who is pregnant…so I qualify because I’m pregnant, but of course I’m a bit freaked out because of the little amount of research that has been done and so on…I don’t really know if I should take it or not, my area hasn’t really been affected by the swine flu yet…but that’s kinda it…yet. There’s serious risks if I don’t take it, but I’m scared of the risks for my baby if I do take it…have an opinion?

Answer #1

The shot hasnt really been around long enough to find out the long term effects and when speaking to my dr I asked her if she would get herself or her children done and she recommended not getting it until they know more about it, if you live in an area that has been infected then I would be more concerned yes but if not then I wouldnt worry to much about getting it.

Answer #2

I personally was told by my dr not to get it because the side effects arent completely clear yet and they don’t know the long term effects

Answer #3

and you’re pregnant? My doctor, and many other OB nurses have told me to take it because after following those woman and their births there havent been any signs of anything being wrong…of course they wouldn’t know if there was something further down the line because we havent gotten that far, but of course I don’t want to be 21, pregnant and fighting for my life on a resperator either…
