[quote=Anonymous]At a regular well woman exam recently I was talking with my doc about trying to get pregnant. She suggested that I get my blood checked for Rubella (German measles) antibodies to make sure I won't get rubella when I'm pregnant. I thought this was odd, but went ahead and got checked. Turns out that even after having shots as a kid, they apparently wore off and now I'm not immune. Doc said to get an MMR shot and then hold off on trying to conceive for 2-3 months. Has anyone else had a doctor suggest this, or come across this before?? I had no idea this was a concern and wondering if my doc is just overly conservative. [/quote]
