I have a question that I would like posted if allowed. I am pregnant, and my OBGYN is really pushing for me to get the COVID vaccine. Are there any moms who received the vaccine while pregnant? I’m concerned about the side effects, mostly fever.

I just had my baby a few days ago and opted out of the vaccine. My doctor agreed that it’s new and the unknown of the side effects and how it effects baby is scary. I would find a new doctor.

Yes, you will pass your immunity to your child. If I was pregnant I know I would get it.

I am 24 weeks pregnant and my OB is the complete opposite with this!! She strongly advised AGAINST it while pregnant or breastfeeding. There have been higher miscarriages rates, spontaneous labor(early labor), and still birth associated with his vaccine. She has witnessed so many sad things this year alone since since vaccines stated and all happened within a few days of getting their vaccine. The breastfeeding thing because there was a woman who’s child died from a reaction to something in the vaccine through her breast milk. If your doctor makes you feel guilty or tries to pressure you I would quickly be switching to another provider. MOST are advising against while pregnant but of course the CDC and government are trying to make it seem safe and advise it pregnant or not. Do your research, not just the media.

I won’t say what you should do but I find it interesting that when it 1st rolled out pregnant and nursing mothers were advised against getting it and so when they weren’t getting it the story flipped and it was suddenly safe🤷♀️that’s sus to me.

I did have the vaccine. I am fully vaccinated now (Pfizer and Moderna is my 2nd dose). My OB and my husband (also a physician) both recommended for me to have it. I haven’t had any side effects. Just pain on the injection site. I was really worried at first, but hopefully no adverse effects in the future

They have studied it and found that most women and their babies that get covid do not survive and you could give protection to your infant if it crosses the placenta if you do get the vaccine while pregnant. I can honestly say I would rn knowing what I know if I was pregnant.

I just delivered my daughter at 37 weeks. My doctor NEVER asked me if I ever wanted the vaccine. Not once. Wait till you have the baby… there’s no need to get the vaccine while pregnant.
I would 100%, without question. It will provide protection for your baby as well.

It’s not safe to get the vaccine yet. It’s barely been studied. Look at the ingredients. One of those makes people INFERTILE. I’m pro Vax but it’s not right for anyone to be test subjects in a research project. Which is what the COVID vaccine is. Anyone who blindly gets this needs to rethink their choice.

I would 100% WAIT until you’ve had your baby. Do not risk it, please!
My midwife hasn’t even mentioned getting the vaccine. I personally didn’t want to get it while pregnant anyway because I didn’t know what would happen. I waited until the vaccine was available to the public in my area to get it.
I can’t believe the comments here. Trust your doctor, not ridiculous comments on the internets. I guarantee your doctor has studied this vaccine extensively, while these woke mamas have no idea what they’re talking about. If your doctor recommends the vaccine fucking take it. Don’t be stupid.
No!
I’m pregnant and I don’t want it! Also when breastfeeding I wouldn’t get it either.
There it’s really any study’s on how it would go while pregnant… it could hurt the baby.

I had both doses… and I’m so happy I got it, I recently had Covid and it wasn’t as bad… just like a normal flu , it protects the baby too… honestly is up to you to get it or not ,some people are afraid of it because no research and blah blah blah… but at the end it’s up to you.
I also know a few moms who have got it and none of them who had their babies already didn’t lose their babies like some people claim 🤷 in fact they are very healthy babies.

I’d say yes get it now. But if you don’t feel comfortable during pregnancy, do it right after the baby is born. I know a woman who lost her baby due to getting covid while pregnant bc she got super sick & went into labor early and the baby didn’t make it.

I didnt get it while pregnant and was never asked to either
As a momma of two vaccine injured children NO ma’am IF you do your own research amd decide the vaccine is right for you… Just wait until after you have the baby. No reason to risk it in my opinion.

No. I just delivered. I had to be tested. I had one doctor try and force the “vaccine”. I read an article I think back in Feb where a small group of women maybe 200 not more than 300 but about 20% needed in spontaneous abortions ( miscarriages) or still births. I did fine another study that encourages the vaccine in the 3rd trimester but still has a 12% stillbirth or miscarriages rate. ( 4000 women in study ) I am not for the vaccine right now. I believe it’s a control aspect for the government. If they keep you in fear they can stripe your rights. There is also not enough research on the outcomes from the “vaccine”. I believe it’s your choice and no company or government should be offering money, lottery or anything else if you get a vaccine.

The still birth rate of women whom receive the vaccine while pregnant is pretty high…maybe just take some time to research it and make the decision on your own instead of asking a group of very different women…at the end of the day your decision will only affect you…there is tons of research being done on it you just gotta look:)

The vaccine wasn’t out when I was pregnant (even if it was NO WAY) but I did get vaccinated until after I stopped breastfeeding
I was pushed to get the H1N1 vaccine by my doctor while I was pregnant in 2009 , I know it’s supposed that you can’t get the sickness from the vaccine but I didn’t want it , she pushed and pushed so I got it , ended up with H1N1 , when I was 8 months preggo , they say it doesn’t work that way but it does for me , I have only gotten the flu shot once in my life and got the flu , got the H1N1 and got it , if it doesn’t feel right don’t do it

Why get it when it doesn’t actually prevent you from getting it. I know several people that got the shot and still got covid

I personally would not bc getting vaccinated, let alone with a vaccine that has hardly any studies on it for miscarriage and still birth should be a definite no and just not getting it while pregnant should be enough reasoning. It was always said that pregnant or breastfeeding women should not get certain vaccines. Why does this trial one make a difference? It doesn’t. Don’t risk yourself nor your unborn child. If you want it, wait until baby is born. There are many people still testing positive and getting covid even vaccinated. It doesn’t stop you from getting it. It only helps your symptoms not be worse but again you can still get it. I’m pregnant and I refuse to get the vaccine. My own OB also has recommended I don’t get it for the simple fact of being pregnant. They said after baby then I can get it if I’d like but he doesn’t recommend it. Also NO doctor should be pressuring anyone especially pregnant to be getting anything injected to their bodies like this right now anyway. It’s not okay for them to pressure their patients. I would’ve simply told my OB no and to not bring it up again. If you do not feel comfortable getting it right now then don’t do it. Your gut is telling you not too for a reason. Good luck!

I have got it. No vaccine is 100% safe but how do we know it will work if we don’t try; like people did before us living through a pandemic. It’s just like all the other vaccines they will never 100% cover or protect you but will help prevent the serious harm it could have on you and possibly reduce the spread. I will pass on what antibodies I can to the baby and that’s a good thing to think my baby will have a small amount of protection against it should they get it. There is enough research to know that it doesn’t effect you while pregnant and also its 100% safe. Miscarriage and still birth can be caused by many factors not just this particular vaccine.

I got it at 34 weeks pregnant as it was high in our county at the time.I got the 2nd 1 when he was 3 weeks old. Completely my decision which I’m happy with as he got the antibodies when I feed him those first few days.With regards to them getting the vaccine themselves when there older ( next 10 years I’ll check the research then)

I personally wouldn’t risk it considering it’s still unknown for it to even work against the virus, let alone the affects it may have on the baby. Your choice though but no obgyn should be pressuring their patient to get the vaccine if they don’t want to… that kinda seems like a red flag or maybe for them to get a good paycheck. Idk that’s just me though

I got it at 28 weeks and my baby and I are healthy. I only got a sore arm from the Moderna vaccine and a slight fever.
My ob personally said not to, there’s not enough research on it, also you can still get and give the virus so what’s the point ?

Me personally I’m not. I had a midwife call me stupid for not wanting and for listening to a specialist for autoimmune diseases. He wants me to wait to get blood work done to see if I am immune compromised. And she told me we were idiots no matter what. 
the rest of my Dr’s and my specialist Dr for my ultrasounds are all okay with me not wanting to get it yet. So honestly, if you really don’t want it. Tell them, and tell them if they keep trying to push it, you would like someone else because you are no longer comfortable with them. Even of I wasn’t pregnant right now i still will be waiting.
I told the midwife the FDA has not approved it and it is still in human trails. I’m not comfortable with being a trail run.
I probably won’t do it while pregnant as it’s a new vaccination and they are still learning about side effects.

I work at a pharmacy, the covid vaccine is not safe for pregnant women, for infants, or for children under 12 years of age. It’s recommended to wait until after giving birth.
There is no current evidence surrounding the possibilities of it affecting infants having birth defects/ pregnancy abnormalities/ miscarriage / or an increased risk for SIDS. unless you would like to be the ones to find out I strongly suggest against it.
The OB/GYN doctors here at Yale hospital (Nor anywhere in CT) are vaccinating pregnant women

I would join the Covid 19 Vaccine-Evidence Based Group: Pregnancy, Lactation, TTC & Children. There’s a lot of women who’ve gotten it and successfully given birth and there’s also evidence to back that there is NO difference in pregnant women getting it than any regular individual. I would say listen to your gut and no one else because what people are failing to realize is that getting covid while pregnant can be a death sentence for you & baby.

It’s really weird that your obs pushing it considering they don’t know the effects it can have on pregnant women. I’d just tell them you don’t feel comfortable and if they keep pushing tell them you don’t want to discuss it further. I wouldn’t get the flu vaccine pregnant let alone something so new that isn’t approved yet.

I don’t think anyone on here can give you a good answer to this question. They are all going to be based on opinion. I see how both covid and the shot could be a risk to an unborn child so I would talk to a few doctors and get their professional opinions. There isn’t enough if any research on an unborn child to give a good answer.

It’s not yet approved for children under 12. Therefore I don’t understand how getting it while pregnant is a good idea?.. also not enough research done.

Statistics show that women who are pregnant are more likely to die of covid so it’s in your best interest hun. The Pfizer vaccine is the safest one. Talk to your doctor for a more thorough breakdown of the info.

Ive had the vaccine during pregnancy, had first dose at 11weeks and second at 20 weeks. Now 29 weeks healthly baby on all scans also measuring great on growth scan.
Catching Covid during pregnancy can cause preterm labour and stillbirth and more at risk of needing icu help. Its already been proven that the vaccine during pregnancy gives baby antibodies to protect them after birth from covid. Which is exactly what the whooping cough and flu vaccine also do.

I had the same discussion, I am high risk anyway so was due mt vaccine early, but fell pregnant just before the roll out. I decided with my midwives to not take it until baby is out. (This was strongly advised during the beginning of the roll out, it only changed a few months or so in 
which made me think how can it not be safe, to all of a sudden safe 
) Also based on the fact there is no evidence/studies this can’t cause any harm to the baby as of yet. years ago they gave women anti sickness drugs they claimed were completely sage, then they found out it was causing harm to babies when they were born ect.
For me I feel best waiting. For all I care I can push baby out then jab me. But I’d rather not risk anything possibly happening xx

If you have doubts and are asking that should be enough to wait 
Just because some people have been ok doesn’t mean you will because nobody knows how there body will react to it.So don’t feel pressured to have it… get your baby here safe first.
