Hi all,

I'm 5.5 weeks atm, and going to get my BT next week (as recommended by the doc). She also said when I come back in to get my results, that I should get both the fluvax and whooping cough vax at the same time, and that DH will need it too - is this normal?

Since this will be my first I'm being a bit overly cautious. I normally have the flu vax every year but I'm wondering if it's worth the risk to a still-developing baby - even if there's any risk at all. Or should I wait until the 2nd trimester to be on the safe side? (But by then it might be too late anyway lol!) Plus it may be better if I do get the flu this year because I didn't get the shot, that would build a natural immunity for bub as well.

Any thoughts or experiences? Advice? TIA xxx
