Comment by Trish on October 5, 2009 at 8:14pm: I have been getting the flu shot for several years and I have never had any side effects other than the injection spot being soar. My three children also gets them two have the trait and they have never had any side effects either. I know sometimes babies in general get a little sick from immunizations, so hopefully that's all it is. I hope she feel better and give lil momma a kiss (she is so cute)!
