I have a question that I think people here can help me answer.

Is this a typical story of what can happen when a pregnant woman gets a flu shot?

A dear young lady in our church here-- a sports trainer-- just lost her baby at 33-weeks. This was their first baby. I visited her yesterday, to see how she was doing. She told me a bit of the story. It was a "very uneventful" pregnancy, but in the last couple weeks her baby would become very inactive. It distressed her to the point that a couple of times she went in to have her baby monitored. They finally delivered the baby by C-section just before Christmas. Her white blood cell count was astronomical, and she was already going through organ failure. The baby survived for two hours. (She said the nurses there had never seen a case like this-- with all the care available in the Dallas, TX area, they had never lost a baby at 33 weeks.)

She said she had done things just as the doctor told her. That nothing unusual happened, until the baby stopped moving. She mentioned the flu, and I felt to ask her if she had gotten the vaccine. She assured me she certainly had, as everything was fine and she was in her second trimester at the time, and it's what the doctor told her she should do.

I didn't say anything further to her about vaccines. She didn't need it at the time. Being a mom to three myself, it just seems to me that, if everything was progressing normally, as it should, and the toxins of a vaccine are introduced-- could this not have been a definite factor to what happened to her dear child?

Thanks for any insight.
