swine flu jab - ow ow ow!

[yorksmummy]

Pointless thread, had mine today (had one with my previous pregnancy) but I had forgotten how quickly it give you a dead arm!!!! Lasted 3 days last time.
My surgery had invited 20 pregnant women for the jab, the nurse said I was the only one to turn up so far, and there was no one waiting when I left! Guess people think as it's not winter it's not important now.............

Exactly princess, I can't believe so many pregnant women take the risk, I was thankful to be offered it to be honest. xx

some people just chose not to for some reason, no way I'd risk catching it though, it's awful x

I had one at 12 weeks, my arm did hurt a lot but after that no side effects. I'd rather be safe.

Hope no one took offence at my comment, I know it's individual choice about getting jabs etc.
Last time I had it I had no side effects other than the dead arm which lasted about 3 days, was sensible and had it in my right arm as they'll be taking my blood pressure in my left arm tomorrow at my appointment, guessing that might have hurt a wee bit!? LOL. x
