I was 5 weeks pregnant when I got the H1N1 vaccine. I received the shot on a Thursday and was very sore and achy on Friday. I miscarried my baby on Sunday, just 3 days after receiving the shot. This was my first pregnancy and I thought I was doing the best thing for myself and my baby by getting the shot. My doctor didn't warn me against waiting until I was further along nor was I aware of any warnings by the government.
Thats awful mandy asi said on another blog this is how there trying to bring in population control and not cluing anyone in. I am very sorry about ur baby and hope things are well for u now
