H1N1 mist

For my 25 month old.  I have to decide right now because they may be out tomorrow.  Get it or not??  Argh, I find this stressful.

  • I've heard that the mist is not good for kids under 2 or with compromised immune systems/medical conditions. the mist is a live virus. pg women shouldn't get the mist either.

  • Well she's over 2 and I'm not pregnant.
  • so--my brain is gone--I read her age as 15 months. oops. what does your pedi say?  If she has no underlying medical condition I would go for the mist.

  • I'd get the mist and will get it for dd when it becomes available around here. It provides active immunity as opposed to passive immunity with the shot and is thus more effective and lasts longer.
