    We did the flu shot last year at 11mo and will do it again this year. The first time they get it it's two shots a month apart. We did it as soon as possible last year because we were going on vacation and didn't want DD getting sick. We had no issues and will definitely do it again.

    Yes he will get it as soon as his pedi has it available. When I was a kid, my neighbors baby got the flu and died. I don't play around with it.

    We will do it.  We did the series of 2 shots last year as soon as he was old enough too.

    Our pedi recommends DS to get it since he is now in daycare.  I'm nervous but we'll probably have him vaccinated.

    Both my kids (currently 10mths and 3 1/2 years) as well as DH & I will be getting just as we do every year.

    This exactly for DS! Not sure about DD yet because she may have an egg allergy :-(

    DS has had one every year since he was 6 months old. DD didn't get one because she was born during flu season so she was still too little but she will get one this year.
