Hi ladies! Congratulations to all new moms out there! I wanted to ask your opinion on Covid vaccines during pregnancy. Just wanted to hear it from the ladies who already had the babies. Did you have Covid vaccine during pregnancy? If so on what week of pregnancy. Did u have any adverse affects of the vaccine? I m at 12 weeks and paranoid to take it. I m being forced by my employer to take it even though I work from home. If I don’t take it I will lose my job and my health insurance and I really need that one being pregnant. My worry is the long term affect on the baby. The CDC site states it is safe but they do have a disclosure to protect their ass that says the safety data on pregnant is limited. I really would appreciate any feedback you can share. The risk of me getting Covid is low since I m home practically most of the time. Thank you in advance!
Re: Covid vaccine during pregnancy
I had a normal, low risk pregnancy & delivery. Healthy baby was born at 40w+4d. I'm considering the booster shot as it will be the first line of defence against the Omicron variant; my parents & in-laws are both elderly & retired, I often see them as they are my village in helping during the newborn phase
I work in Healthcare and there is alot of nurses saying that there are WAY more stillbirths and miscarriage's happening now, and that a majority of people coming in are vaxxed. I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole during pregnancy. It used to state on the product warnings that anyone getting the vaccine should stay away from pregnant or breastfeeding women for 2 weeks due to possible vaccine shedding, but then it wa redacted. My sister is also on a global ivf discussion page and has been trying to get pregnant since before the vaccines. She says she has noticed a definite increase in people posting having lost their babies. It's too early for them to know ifnthe vaccines are safe for pregnancy. There are a ton of toxic substances in these vaccines as well. It is awful that people are being put in this position by their employers. The only way to be safe is to not get it. I know a few people who have gotten covid while pregnant and just isolated at home and been fine. I worked as a lab and x ray technician with covid positive patients, taking their blood, doing their x rays and testing their covid swabs, up until 10 days before my due date. If you want to keep your baby safe, do not go near the vaccine. Any research you do, look on the web browser duckduckgo instead of Google, as Google sensors a large amount of information. This is a huge decision. Please use your own critical thinking. Look into the vaccine ingredients.
I actually created a new thread myself related to this as I didn’t read this one….I had all three of my vaccines during pregnancy. I then had my baby the end of February and was discharged from hospital with what I thought was a perfectly healthy baby. After a few days he became constipated and not feeding well which the midwife put down to him having jaundice. He was back in hospital at 7 days old and he died at 12 days old from a condition called cardiomyopathy. It is very rare in newborns and test results have shown that they believe it to be brought on by a virus called Enterovirus. It’s basically the common cold to us.
I can’t help but wonder if this has happened due to me having the vaccine whilst pregnant.
I got Covid over Christmas into the new year and it was pretty rough the first 48 hours. I got the first dose of the Moderna vaccine at 24 weeks and I felt even more sick than when I had Covid, but its symptoms lasted less time. Got the second dose at 28 weeks and had mild symptoms. I was told because I had Covid I was possibly a high risk pregnancy. I got pretty sick twice after having the vaccines and Covid —I had the stomach flu and then a bad sinus infection. I was admitted into the hospital around 35 weeks and 5 days and diagnosed with gestational hypertension, and I had lost my mucus plug two days prior. Three days later at 36 weeks and 3 days I had PPROM & mild contractions. Wasn’t induced on pitocin until late that night and in the afternoon I had my daughter at 36 weeks and 4 days. She was 5lb 9oz and 19.5 in. She spent five days in the NICU with TTN and monitoring her bilirubin and eating. She’s now five weeks old and doing very well. No long term issues from my pregnancy complications and no concerns with her growth since she was born, as of now. She weighs 7 lb 7oz now.
