Thank you all in advance for your input. [b] I know this whole vaccine issue is a bit controversial.  [/b]My concern isn't about vaccines overall rather about getting them while pregnant.  I didn't get the flu vaccine as I got pregnant after the flu run was done and my OB didn't feel it was necessary.   So I didn't have to deal with this issue of vaccines during pregnancy until now.[/quote]

The "whole vaccine issue" isn't controversial, unless you consider the roundness of the earth controversial. It's a matter of science, and there is consensus in the scientific community.

I appreciate your desire to do well by your child, but honestly, if you don't know the difference between DTaP (diphtheria, tetanus, and acellular pertussis), which is given to children, and the Tdap given to adults, then your googling isn't giving you accurate information. If the websites you are turning up are using them interchangably or discussing recommendations for giving DTaP to adults, then they clearly are confused.[/quote]
