Flu shot

If you ladies have already had this question asked, sorry! 

Are you planning on getting your LO the flu shot? I personally get the flu shot because the one year I didn't take it, I got the flu. It was probably just a coincidence, but still. I'm really torn about getting it for DD. She doesn't go to daycare, but the possibility is there if DH gets a different job in the next couple months.

Re: Flu shot

  • DD doesn't go to daycare. However, she got her first one already. I would rather be proactive than reactive.

  • While neither of my boys go to daycare and stay at home with me, I still get the flu shot for them.  Like pp said, I'd rather be proactive.

  • DD already got her first one.  Better safe than sorry.  She handled it like a champ and had no problems afterwards from it.

    I'm required to get one because I work in healthcare.

  • Nope. Not likely getting it for anyone in our house. 
    Never gotten it in the past. (The flu,...or the shot)
  • our pedi's office is having a flu clinic on 10/12 and Im taking LO - I trust my Dr and she highly recs it
  • Not likely. The success rate of the flu shot actually preventing the flu isn't great. I don't like some of the ingredients in it.
