Necessary is very much a personal opinion/choice. There are ladies on here who have chosen not to have it. I was extremely anxious about getting it - I'd read all sorts of horror stories online (which I presume is what's giving you doubts) - I had one booked at 28 weeks then cancelled it because I was unsure. Then I re-booked and had it at 30weeks. I told myself that there was no evidence whatsoever about the jab being harmful to baby, all the stuff online was circumstantial/hypothetical - whereas there is actual evidence that babies have died or suffered permanant damage from whooping cough. Don't get me wrong I was still a nervous wreck - but I know that it was the right decision for me.
2 weeks on Im feeling fine (no reduced movements from baby etc) had a scan 1 week ago showed that he was happy and placenta etc all functioning normally.
there is no 'right' opinion hun, only what's 'right' for you

I'm the same as Summer. I was booked in at 28 weeks and cancelled it in a right panic. I'm still not totally sure but I have booked it again for next week when I will be 34 weeks. I can't risk my baby catching it and equally its not going to be possible to keep relatives away for 8 weeks or so.
