MMR non-immunity

I have been struggling with infertility for 2 years. I just recently went to a fertility clinic and my blood work showed that I am not immune to Rubella, despite being vaccinated as a child. They want me to postpone IVF and get both rounds of shots. This will put me back a few months on starting the process. The live virus from the vaccine would danger a fetus so you have to wait 4 weeks after the last shot before trying to get pregnant. Having the vaccines as a child and the low likelihood of me contracting rubella is making me wonder if I actually need the vaccine. I can sign a waiver denying it and go forward with IVF. Looking for input from others in my situation. Thanks!
