Gardasil and Pregnancy Weird Question

Please do some more research before considering giving them to your daughter. I've read a couple of articles written by respected medical people saying that there are the possibility of serious side effects and that they would not give them to their daughters. I think that there has actually been a death. If I find some time I'll try to find the articles.

I admire your decision to try out the shots first!

There was a similar question asked a year ago by a woman on this link: http://community.babycenter.com/post/a8422605/gardasil_an...

If you don't find many women who got the shot and then got preggers on mamasource, maybe you can email the woman who asked the question...?

Hope it helps.

I haven't personally taken the shots. There was a college student at my job that took two of the shots and she was in a lot of pain and sick. If it were me I would not give to my daughter. We have been on this earth for a very long time without pharmaceutical companies creating things to help our bodies heal or protect itself. Think and do much research before you give them to her. I will get off my soapbox as this is a touchy subject with me. The other S.. PS I do have a daughter who is 33 so yes I do understand your concern.

I did get the vaccine and then got pregnant. I didn't have any problems with the shot. As far as I know, I didn't have any pregnancy problems. My child after the shot has Down's. I don't know that the vaccine had anything to do with that.

I was counting the days down to until they got the vaccine on the market due to previous issues. Hoping that would protect skin tissue that hadn't been affected by HPV. I am last stage before cancer on a body part you really don't want removed. I am keeping a close eye on it and having it lasered frequently to preserve things.

About a year went by in-between the vaccine and the pregnancy. I am just glad I have some time before having to decide whether to give it to my daughter. HPV can be VERY serious.

Apparently the FDA didn't test Gardasil long enough to know its affect on fertility, however, there are now many reports of women who've had the shot suffering from miscarriage and other serious side effects.

I had the shots. Never had HPV and never got sick from the shots. I now had a almost annoyingly happy and healthy pregnancy andy daughter is perfectly healthy.

I haven't had it but won't give it to my daughter. Too many very negative side effects.
