13 weeks pregnant, not yet had a vaccine due to have it this week.

The place I've booked is doing Moderna only. What are people's thoughts on this? Should I try and get Pfizer instead?

Are there any risks to baby by me having the vaccine?
Thanks

Both moderna and Pfizer are the recommended ones for pregnancy and plenty of data from the US on use.

There are no known risks to your baby (data set from the US over 100,000 including births)

There has however been a recent spike in unvaccinated pregnant women needing hospitalisation with covid infection in comparison with a 1 in 10 then ending up in ICU (Dr on this morning).

Yep moderna is one of the jabs approved for pregnant women, best to get protected from a vaccine as soon as possible with covid rates sky high at the mo! And remember it takes 2-3 weeks after the first jab to start building any immunity at all so you need to keep being careful for now, mixing outdoors where you can.

I had modern 7 weeks ago, due my second which I’ve brought forward to next week so there will be 8 weeks between the two. I’m 28 weeks pregnant now, looking forward to being fully vaccinated in a couple of weeks.

Thanks both!

I had the Pfizer at 13 weeks and my sister had the moderna in third trimester. No side effects for either of us. It was just luck of the draw which one we were offered at the vaccine centers we went to
