    I'm not sure how effective it would be. If your DD does have flu, you've already been exposed. The vax may result in less severe symptoms for you if you do get it, but I don't know that it would have enough time to be effective.

    How far along are you? (I'm on my phone so can't see your ticker). I think it's generally recommended during the second trimester.

    Then there are other things to do to boost your immune system - olive leaf extract, lots of fruit and veg, especially green leafy veg.
