Pregnant after 35

If you already had the tdap shot...

edited September 2014 in Pregnant after 35
Was your arm sore much and for how long? I got mine yesterday and my arm is killing me today. I have a hot, red, pretty swollen 2 inch patch, and my kid LOOOVES to 'take care' of my 'boo boo' which basically is constantly patting and smacking me there. So annoying. I do believe this is a perfectly normal reaction etc just wondering how many days it will last. Last time around they didn't offer me this shot so no experience with that.

  • Mine was fine. DH, though, was SUPER sore, and he is usually pretty tough. I think it just varies by person.

  • I got mine on Tuesday and my arm hurt a lot yesterday. I couldn't really reach up to get stuff in cabinets. Much less today. Just slightly sore.

  • I'm getting mine at my next appointment.  I remember it being painful every time I've gotten it and I'd guess that the pain will go away after a few days (maybe 2-3?).  I'm not looking forward to getting mine and usually I don't mind getting shots.

  • Ok so when I woke up this morning it was already starting to feel better, def better than last night when I posted this. It's still red and hot but the swelling is going down and it hurts less. Hopefully in a day or two it will all be gone.
