Has anyone had it while they were pregnant? I'm going to Malaysia in just under two months and supposed to get this jag, I can't find anything on whether it's safe during pregnancy though :( I would rather just not have it and be careful about where i eat etc (would be doing that anyway), I had a look online and I don't think Malaysia is really high risk for either, but I'm paranoid and can't decide what to do :wacko:

what would you do? have the vaccine or not?
 
I'd go to a travel medicine clinic to see what they say. I did that before going to South Korea.

I didn't look to see the dates of those articles.
I don't think they mentioned about safety during pregnancy. Still searching.

Ok. Some say hep a is ok. Some say it isn't.

thank you so much for your really helpful reply! :) why can't it be one that just simply says it's safe :brat:

I might phone the travel clinic tomorrow actually. I'm mega paranoid now because I watched the panorama about drugs in pregnancy and am reading a book called bad pharma - both were bad ideas :haha:
