feeling guilty :-/ vaccinations FTM

in December 2014 Moms
So I had my appointment today and I was told about the flu shot and tdap that are recommended during this time in my pregnancy 29wks. I was told that i should take atleast one of the vaccinations today.
Today is my only day off (besides yesterday) and I have alot of errands to run and I really wasnt feeling up to it at the time to get a vaccination.

Now since leaving I cannot help myself stress that I didnt get one done today. The midwife told me its best to do it now because it takes a few weeks for the vaccine to work into the LO.

On top of all that I found out that I had failed my 1 hr Gloucose test and need to do the 3hr next week.
Merp.

    I got both shots at my 30 week appt as did DH.  It hasn't bothered either of us.  Arms are a bit tender but that is it.  Just get them at your next appointment.  It will be fine.

    How are you 30 weeks?! Holy shit @Manateearmz!! AFM, I'm getting my tdap at my appointment next week and maybe I'll get the flu shot this weekend with DH. I don't think waiting 24 hours will be that big of a deal, though.

    I don't even know! It's so fast. I totally stalked you in the TTGP Grad post. You are so stinking cute!

    Warning, that TDap hurts like a son of a bitch. So be prepared for a sore arm!!

    I wouldn't worry too much.  Get them both in 2 weeks at your next appt or go to Walgreens or any other pharmacy and get one now. 

    At my appt next week I will be getting both vaccines and taking the glucose test.  Fun!!

    What everyone else said. Do it when it works for you and don't stress about it.

    Don't stress it.  Just get it at your next appt or run into the pharmacy as pp's said.  This is one of those things that really isn't worth your sweat.

    Don't worry so much :) If getting the shots would make you feel better tho, your local Health Dept. should have them for not a lot too. :)

    (I'm getting mine at 30 weeks)

    @ScrappyLika‌ I had the GTT, RH, and DTap in the same day.

    I hated life.
