3rd Trimester

Rhogam Side Effects?

Have any of you who had to have the Rhogam shot (for RH-negative blood type) - feel HORRIBLE afterwards?  Not sick...just overly tired and absolutely no energy (i know...typical pg symptoms...but they've been even more extreme since my injection this morning).  I made it through the work day...took a 2.5 hour nap..and just don't feel like doing anything...even watching TV...

  • I felt fine after my shot... maybe a little tired, but nothing that I noticed was unusual for me (pg me)
  • I did! I felt like crap the next day.. I'm a wimp and i'm easily affected by all medicines.?

    I felt back to normal a few days later though! ?

  • I got mine yesterday and I was super tired...possibly pregnancy related.  My bum hurt pretty much the rest of the day and into the night.  It was super tender at the injection site.

    Other than that...I was fine. :)

  • I had a mild headache after, but that was about it.

    Thankfully mine was in the arm!  It just feels like my arm had a really good workout now..lol...but I'd take that over the butt any day..

  • I got my shot yesterday morning, and though I was tired both yesterday and today, I think that's just because I'm pregnant, not because of the shot.  Actually, until you mentioned it, I forgot I'd even had it, because my arm doesn't even hurt a bit today!
