Guest guest Posted November 27, 2003 Report Share Posted November 27, 2003 My OB Dr tols me as long as I am out of my 1st trimester to get the flu shot. I got mine last week. It has become an epedmic in our town. Everyone has the flu. RNY 12-9-02 Pregnant w/Twins Due May 22 03 Flu Shot?? I heard something on the news today about pregnant and elderly people should have the flu shot cause its a very serious strain this year. Has anyone had the shot while pregnant and is it safe?? I will talk with my OB at my next visit and see what he says. Ive been always afraid to get the flu shot cause some of my friends have gotten sick from just getting the flu shot. But I dont think getting the flu while pregnant is a good thing either. WLS-8/21/03 EDD 7/14/04 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
