It’s weird last year neither kid cried at all (and they were only 4 and 1.5 at the time!). This year the 5 and the 2.5 year old both cried a lot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2852111 Thu, 18 Oct 2018 15:58:01 +0000 Bluemasonjar 2852111@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a newborn so got mine as soon as it was available. Took DS to the pediatrician the next day and DH got his at the pharmacy a week later. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2852087 Thu, 18 Oct 2018 14:36:14 +0000 PawPrints 2852087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep all four of us, baby boy still needs shot #2 though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851911 Wed, 17 Oct 2018 17:15:34 +0000 Alba4 2851911@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have.

Took DD1 to ped's walk-in clinics, done within 5 minutes! DD2 got hers at her 21 month wellness visit. </p> <p>DH and I are always the last to get it and some years totally forget :meh: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851799 Wed, 17 Oct 2018 10:27:29 +0000 SweetiePie 2851799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, all of us. Me and DH, 4yo and 8mo got it last week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851798 Wed, 17 Oct 2018 10:23:38 +0000 josina 2851798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm getting mine at 1, local dr's office has a walk-in clinic today for them. DH is in charge of taking the kids in to the clinic nearest him/them since he gets off work earlier, latest would be the 29th when they are taking walk-ins. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851787 Wed, 17 Oct 2018 09:46:43 +0000 Miss Sarah 2851787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH already got his, DD and I are scheduled for them tomorrow! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851774 Wed, 17 Oct 2018 09:18:09 +0000 periwinklebee 2851774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, ugh, I need to get on this. I was just going to get LO's at his nine month well check next week, but didn't realize until I read this thread that there were two doses! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851769 Wed, 17 Oct 2018 09:01:27 +0000 Ajsmommy 2851769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Kids are done. I might get mine today at my lunch break and DH is planning to get his but not sure when he will... I better ask him... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851767 Wed, 17 Oct 2018 08:55:09 +0000 Beehive 2851767@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have all had ours, my kids and husband at the pediatrician (he got a super cute band-aid) and me at work. I just heard that it's an early flu season this year, so if I didn't have them yet, I would get them asap! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851762 Wed, 17 Oct 2018 08:44:55 +0000 hitchhiker 2851762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As of this morning, we are all vaccinated. DH got his over a month ago at an appointment, he took DD1 after school a few weeks ago, DD2 and I got ours this morning. Love that we can just walk in and get shots near the front door of our clinic, which is on the way to work/daycare. Feeling relieved, since there have been a few cases reported in our state. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851750 Wed, 17 Oct 2018 08:12:14 +0000 kayla0416 2851750@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH and I getting at my work flu clinic today. Kids have a nurse appointment Monday for shots - it will be the second dose for baby, first was a month ago at her 9 month appointment. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851743 Wed, 17 Oct 2018 07:40:08 +0000 skinnycow 2851743@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband and daughter have gotten theirs. I keep putting mine off... I'll get around to it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851737 Wed, 17 Oct 2018 07:09:43 +0000 Adira 2851737@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Got mine on Monday and the kids go this weekend! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851713 Tue, 16 Oct 2018 21:43:08 +0000 misolee 2851713@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DD's birthday is in October so we always get it at her yearly checkup and DS just joins. DD2 got her first at her 6month appt last month and will get the second part tomorrow.</p> <p>Last year I got it at my OB bc I was pregnant but I need to find a place to go get it. My husband prob wont bc don't get me started. He actually got the flu last year when I was pregnant, passed it to my DD, and out of everyone, I had to take the tamiflu as a precaution :meh: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851702 Tue, 16 Oct 2018 20:34:17 +0000 IRunForFun 2851702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got mine when I went to a new employee orientation at a hospital. DD (21 months) will get hers on the 25th. I wanted to do it sooner but then early last week she had a high fever and double ear infections and they told me to wait 2 weeks from that point. I'm nagging DH about his - he keeps telling me his company does them but he is unable to tell me when. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851698 Tue, 16 Oct 2018 20:16:18 +0000 DesertDreams88 2851698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Next week we will, I think. Lo1 got it in Sept and lo2 got the first dose then 2nd dose in late nov. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851697 Tue, 16 Oct 2018 20:07:35 +0000 glitterboots 2851697@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Get it as soon as possible!!! We were supposed to all go as a family and get it done this past weekend- but instead all of us came down with the flu between Thursday-Friday! The season has started early here. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851689 Tue, 16 Oct 2018 19:50:17 +0000 LadyDi 2851689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! We all got ours, DS2 gets his booster in a couple of weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851687 Tue, 16 Oct 2018 19:31:37 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2851687@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It just came out here I think. I’ll go ASAP and drag my husband with me and book the kids in with the doc. We have a 3 month old that is too young to get the shot and I definitely don’t want him getting the flu. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851679 Tue, 16 Oct 2018 18:57:40 +0000 Foodnerd81 2851679@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We were all sick last week with a cold and cough, but I’m planning to bring the kids this Thursday for the clinic hours at our pediatrician. I have to make an appt for myself too and will call tomorrow. DH doesn’t have a pcp and our insurance only covers it at your primary so I have to keep coaxing him to do it at the pharmacy anyway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851656 Tue, 16 Oct 2018 17:54:48 +0000 hellobeeboston 2851656@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not yet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851654 Tue, 16 Oct 2018 17:28:19 +0000 pachamama 2851654@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me yes bc I'm 27 weeks pregnant, husband yes and I have to get my son in next week when I am done working and have time to take him. Great mom here 🙋 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851650 Tue, 16 Oct 2018 17:00:00 +0000 MenagerieMama 2851650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! Kids and I are set. DH hasn't gotten his at work yet but I keep pestering him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851649 Tue, 16 Oct 2018 16:59:11 +0000 Mrs. Toad 2851649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine will be tomorrow at work. DH and the kids will be in early Nov. DS has to wait a month after his 4yr shots and they didn't have the flu at the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851646 Tue, 16 Oct 2018 16:40:08 +0000 bhbee 2851646@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got ours in September - I was going to wait for October as I got the flu in March and I read an article that said that they believe it may wear off some, so October was ideal (vs earlier). But then kids started testing positive in our area at the end of August :shocked: so I thought we better get them since we have a baby who can’t be vaccinated yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851645 Tue, 16 Oct 2018 16:34:51 +0000 MrsSCB 2851645@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son and I have gotten ours. My husband still needs to 🙄 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flu-shot-4#post-2851639 Tue, 16 Oct 2018 16:22:51 +0000 lioneyes 2851639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS gets his in 1 week at his well visit. I just had a baby 3 days ago and when the peds came by the hospital I asked if I should have my husband take my son sooner and she said it's fine to wait the week bc flu doesn't show up until at least late Nov/Dec. But it does take 2 weeks to work so I'd say do it this month. </p>
