I have an infant and 3yo and STILL can’t find anywhere to get the vaccine. Bitches. I’m pretty much just avoiding any places w/lots of people. Real fun.

We have a friend with a 5 year old daughter who is very high risk. She cannot find the shot either. I’m not even trying for our girls. They are low risk and healthy. I recognize that there are people with real health problems who need it more than they do. Plus, given the number of kids already sick with H1N1 in their school, they have already beene xposed to it. Our strategy right now is to try and keep them healthy so they don’t develop it.

You are so lucky! I figured at 36 weeks pregnant with asthma, I’d be an easy winner. No dice. I’m on 5 different waiting lists. It’s so frustrating and it doesn’t help that everytime I turn on the TV, it seems like there’s some story about how I’m going to die if I don’t get the shot. (Like we don’t have enough to worry about this late in the game.) If your OB’s office just got it, maybe there’s some hope for mine in the western suburbs. Good luck with the last few days of your pregnancy!
