Vaccination for Pregnant Woman

We are stuck with whether my wife who is 6 months pregnant should go for the vaccination. Number of factors that we are looking at: - Increasing number of Covid 19 cases in the community. - New rules concerning unvaccinated individuals are getting stricker and who knows when it will expand to hospitals. - Government moving forward with treating the virus as an endemic where we welcome international travellors and allowing our own to travel overseas. - Updated Healthcare Protocols where home recovery will become default once an individual tested positive. Any ladies took the 1st and 2nd dose and had given birth? All good for you and the baby?

Having the same issue as you. I’m in my 32 weeks, although studies show is ok for pregnant mums to get the shot, i still prefer to wait for baby to come out to get the vaccination but the new tightening rules for the unvaccinated is making me worry. I don’t even know if i still able to go for my routine check up as the clinic is in the mall. For those who keeps asking pregnant mum to get the shot, appreciate if you could respect our choice as some of us have our own reason for not getting it. For me, constantly bleeding, hence i rather not risk it.

Yeah, it’s never an easy decision. Every decision should be respected. Hope that the bleeding will stop. Take care! Wishing you a smooth pregnancy! 🙂
