Whooping cough vaccine

For anyone who has had the whooping cough vaccine, where did you have it? My midwife asked me to call the hospital to add it to my anatomy scan appointment but I can’t get through to the hospital. My scan’s in two weeks so I guess I can just ask them then but just wondered what your experience was ☺️

I went to the hospital for my anatomy scan Wednesday and a nurse was sitting on a chair near the ultrasound area doing them , you just go over to them and ask. If not ask the sonographer at your scan where you can you go to get one. ☺️

I had mine the other day at hospital. You can just walk in maternity ward and ask for it. That’s what we did. I think it was under the antenatal care section. (As in a sign for that) but all hospitals could be different.
It doesn’t hurt at all however a few hours later my arm was absolutely killing. I still can’t lie on it 2-3 days later xxx

Thanks ladies, it’s so reassuring to read that you all managed to get one, I’ll just ask when I go to my appointment and hopefully I’ll get mine too 😘
