Re: If you were not getting/debating the swine flu shot for DC, have you changed your mind?
I am still on the fence but since so many people are not able to get it ~ the decision may be out of my hands! I will see in a couple of weeks when I take DS to his ped's office. I know my doctor is waiting to receive his shipment. (& then if he does get some who knows how many he will receive)

we were on the fence about getting it for DS but have decided to go ahead with it.

Re: If you were not getting/debating the swine flu shot for DC, have you changed your mind?
Yes - as the number or young people succumb to the flu I'm becoming more worried. The DR. said it's not just kids with underlying medical conditions anymore.
Additionally - I have a 6 week old who just got over RSV. He was SOOOO sick. They almost admitted him to the hospital. If RSV could make him so sick - what would the flu do? I shared my concern with the ped. and he said that RSV was a "walk in the park" compared to what the flu would do.
That sealed the deal for me!

Re: If you were not getting/debating the swine flu shot for DC, have you changed your mind?
I got it for DD, both shots.
My reasoning was let me give her whatever protection I can. I trust my ped and I know that he would never give her something that would do her any harm.
She got the nasal spray and had 0 side effects from it. She goes back in a few weeks for the booster.
She was also premature and I feel like she may be more at risk, although my ped never said nor implied it.

I was "bullied" by my ped into getting the regular flu shot for DS, but I will not be swayed into getting the swine flu shot for DS (or anyone else in my family) by any shot

I am so torn, I didnt want to give dd h1n1 and my ped agreed...now she tells me she has seen many many very sick kids and recommends we get it. I dont know who to trust or even HOW to make an informed decision when all the info I read, see, hear is different.
ITA I wish there was an easy answer. Every doctor has a different opinion. why the worry? There must be a reason as to why the medical professionals are not all on the same page. UGH!
