Bleah. Whooping Cough.

You are fine. I am making DH do it before he sees the babies again (thought he had it)

[emyinpink]

ugh, that makes me so annoyed. I'm totally on your side here. I had an extremely severe reaction to the whooping cough vaccine as a baby so I was never fully immunized against it and people who won't when they can make me SO SO SO SO SO PISSED OFF.

A co workers new baby granddaughter was in the hospital for 14 days from Whooping cough. She was very, very sick. I don't blame you or making sure everyone has had their Tdap!!

Good for YOU! Stick to your guns!! And frick, can't you even get the shot at Walgreens and such, too? Pffft. You sister doesn't need to see the baby at all with that attitude

I'm glad this is what this post is about though...I was afraid you were going to say it turned out the plague you've been battling was whooping cough! WHEW!

I agree with your stance. Maybe your family just doesn't understand how bad the epidemic is in WA since they live on the other coast.

ugh..so it pisses me off about my mom even more is that she STILL hasn't gotten the shot...bjl is 5.5 months old, i told her to get it about 6 months ago.

Good for you. Definitely stick to your guns! I wish more people understood that this is not something to mess around with and the fact that it can kill a newborn. All my family got before they saw Edmund.

If she has insurance, it should be covered. But I support you in doing that - babies can die from whooping cough.
