Flu Shot

Do you guys get the flu shot now that you have your DS, just to prevent one more potential health thing, or have you always gotten the flu shot? I'm getting mine tomorrow not because I may be getting the DS this winter but just to try to prevent the loss of any sick days I am going to need for my DS.

I was a little slack about getting the flu shots before but I'm diligent about getting them now.

I work with the public and have a toddler in daycare, so I'm pretty diligent about getting my flu shot every year. My workplace even offers them for free at some of their locations and lets you take time off to go get them, so I really have no excuse to skip it!

I plan on getting mine as soon as possible. Got one last year also. I think it's a good idea.

i don't get a flu shot, and never have.  i've found that since my DS i seem to get sick less frequently anyway (i think it's all the vitamins).

Why dont you get a flu shot?

because i don't want to.

I realize that,  but why don't you want to?

does it matter?

Of course...I'm interested in people's reasons,  we can learn something.

Plus the OP is asking if she should get one - the reasons are important.
