Currently in my 16th week, and the gynae advise to take flu/influenza vaccination during 16th to 20th week. This is to avoid catching flu and ended up in hospital. But i heard that some people may have side effects after taking vaccination. Is it necessary to take such vaccination? Thanks.

Advisable to take the jab as it will be more complicated if u caught a flu while pregnant. Side effects of the jab are pretty rare. Anyway it’s Medisave claimable :)
