Flu shot....Who's getting one and where?

So Doc suggested it be a great idea for me to get a flu shot since we are in the cold and flu stages now. Anyone else going for this and where are you going to get it? I know Walgreens always has them but what if I'm not near one?

Re: Flu shot....Who's getting one and where?

  • I got mine at the OB office a few weeks ago.  I would call your dr and ask if they give them.

  • I already had my flu shot.  I was able to get it at my OB's office. Target does them, and of course there's always going to your general practitioner's office for one.

  • I had never gotten one before so when my OB said it was recommended I asked her where I should go to get one and she kinda laughed and pulled one out and gave it to me right then and there.  I think most OB offices probably have them, but you might be able to get it cheaper through your work or some other way. mine cost $25.

  • Also, most OBs will offer the thimerosal-free flu vaccines, as they are better for pregnant ladies.  I don't believe Walgreens offers these
  • I got mine at Walgreens!

  • I got mine from my doctor who offers them free to his expecting moms.

  • Got it a month ago at the OB.  They were offering it and I was there for my monthly appointment.  Perfect timing!

  • I got mine at my OB last week. I was told you can only get the preservative free shot.
  • I got one at work for free. My OB suggested I get one but didn't have them to give. My family doctor had them and that's where my H got his. I didn't go to my doctor for it because I didn't feel like driving out to the office when i could get it at work.

  • I got mine at my OB's office and it cost $25.  My work also has had several flu shot clinics.  And I know CVS has them, which is probably where DH will get his.

    It was my first time getting it and my arm was sore for a few days afterward.

    I got mine at Walgreens and it was preservative-free. They do have both kinds.

    My OB/GYN office is also offering them, giving their pregnant patients priority.

  • I am going to my regular doctor today to get mine.  It is in the same building as my OB, so I get to kill two birds w/one stone today.

  • I went to Walgreen's a couple weeks ago and got one. Make sure they know you're pregnant, they gave me a different one that didn't contain  preservatives for whatever reason.
