Shots aren't just for babies. Even if you got all your immunizations as a child, you're not fully protected from catching a serious illness – and passing it on to your newborn. You may be due for a booster (immunity can fade over time) or a new vaccine that wasn't available before.
As a new parent, it's recommended that you have a flu shot, the Tdap vaccine (to protect your baby from whooping cough), and other vaccines. Find out more about which shots you may need and why.
