Toddlers: 24 Months+

flumist question

Has your toddler had the flumist?  And if so how long ago and has there been any problems since getting it or sign of illness?  I am concerned as I also have a 2.5 month old as well.  And I know the flumist is a live virus..

  • DD got the seasonal flu mist and we're waiting for the pedi to get the H1N1 version.  DD did fine and had no reaction to the mist.  She got it in September.

    It is a weakened live virus and I've been told it actually provides better protection because the body makes its own antibodies to the flu.
