WWYD in my situation if you couldn't have the vaccine?

[Bobopalooza]

I'm 28 weeks pregnant but I'm not able to have the vaccine on medical grounds (not because of pregnancy, obviously) and I'm frightened.

I'm as close to shielding as possible, personally, I don't go anywhere other than my medical appointments. The exception is DH working and other family members coming in and out which I can do nothing about. DH doesn't wear a mask at work as he claims it prevents him being able to work properly and he/his ex aren't happy to test DSC regularly at all

The problem is I feel like a sitting duck.

Over the past 6 weeks I've had norovirus and two viral infections, no biggie to most people but they are to me. It feels like just a matter of time before I get covid itself. How could i not? It's rife and I'm picking up everything else.

I feel as though I can't keep myself or baby safe and I'm starting to feel resentful of DH which I know isn't fair

Speak to your doctor.

According to the government's Green Book (14a) the only reason that you can't have the vaccine is if you have had a reaction requiring medical treatment to an ingredient of all the vaccines approved here (ie if it's something in one vaccine, you can have another).

If you are considered at risk of having a reaction, you may still be able to have the vaccination but under the supervision of an allergy specialist.
