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?

Hello! Currently 24 weeks. I was initially not planning to take the vaccine until I give birth. Husband and family members also didn't want me to take it. We wfh, isolate, avoid malls, don't meet family and friends, order in (groceries included) and only head out for gynae appt and to run errands if necessary. But given the current situation and the new protocols, it looks like there's not really a choice and it's a matter of time before we get it. Mentally, it also takes a toll on us because I am so so paranoid whenever we head out. So we've decided to take it this week... Just hope that everything will be okay. Take care and stay safe!
