Parent Immunization Help Please!

CindyBrimmerCindyBrimmer
in Trying to Get Pregnant
There are so many articles on how a parent not having immunizations is harmful to the baby, I understand that what with the antibodies of the mother being the only thing protecting the child for the first six months. My problem is this, whooping cough is making a comeback due to adults not getting boosters, infants are particularly susceptible, and guess what the one thing I'm allergic to is. Since my allergy is severe (The doctors say even a mild case could kill me and the vaccination definitely would) I have never had the shots and I am wondering what I can do for my child when I do get pregnant. Any thoughts or anyone in the same spot?

    I'm wondering this as well. I have not had the pertussis vaccine due to being allergic, but I don't know to what extreme.

    Oh wow! I've never heard this one before!

    I would talk to your OBGYN to find out what resources they suggest you take and any advice they could give you.

    I'd love to know too.  What reactions do you guys have?  I had a fever of 105 and paralysis.  I'm also asthmatic so the thought of getting whooping cough scares me too.  I asked my GP and she said there wasn't anything I could do except wash my hands and avoid anyone I know who has it.  I'd love to know if you hear anything different.
