Flu vaccines are often recommended in pregnancy, but what does the research actually say?
— The CDC reports seasonal effectiveness ranging from 10% to 60%.
— Cochrane Reviews found limited benefit for pregnant women and healthy adults.
— No flu vaccine has ever been tested in a randomised controlled trial during pregnancy — the gold standard of medical evidence.
This isn’t about fear — it’s about facts.
When something is recommended for every woman, it’s okay to pause and ask: Is it really necessary for me?

🇦🇺 In 2014, Australia declared measles eliminated.
But dozens of cases were still being reported. Confused? You’re not alone.
”Elimination” doesn’t mean zero cases — it means no ongoing local transmission.
So technically… we still have measles. But officially? Mission accomplished.
🎯 Words matter. Definitions matter more.

Reaching halfway into your pregnancy is a big milestone — not just for your baby, but for your decision-making too.
This is your chance to gather information, ask deeper questions, and take an active role in your care.
💡 The more you know, the more confident you’ll feel. You’re not being “difficult” — you’re being informed.

The whooping cough vaccine is recommended in every pregnancy.
But how often do we stop and ask:
– Has it ever been studied in women receiving it more than once?
– What do we know about its ingredients — like aluminium or pertussis toxin?
– Can vaccinated adults still carry and spread the infection to newborns?
– And if so... what does that mean for ‘cocooning’?
These aren’t fringe questions — they’re the foundation of informed consent.
Yet most women never hear them raised.
Our latest module explores what the evidence really says about dTpa during pregnancy — and what you deserve to know before saying yes.
