Has anyone had their Covid jabs very early on in pregnancy? I know there is a lot of threads re this but haven't read much in regards to women below 7 weeks?

I have my second when I must have been 3 weeks and didn't know yet. So far so good at 18 weeks...

I haven't had mine yet (7+1) but waiting until the second trimester if I'm lucky enough to make it that far. I thought the guidance was to wait until then, unless things have changed?

I had mine at 3 weeks. Baby still doing well in week 14. Having my second one this week.

Had my first at 5 weeks and second at 14. All was good. Actually seem to have suffered a lot less from the jab than my husband did. I got Pfizer. My own Gp gave me the second one and actually congratulated me on it.

I got mine because I know I work in an environment where I am interacting with people who may not follow guidelines and also wanted to be fully vaccinated before I reach the third trimester.

I'm 5 weeks and went for a scan today. My midwife told me to get it as early as possible.. I haven't heard about the guidance to wait so slightly freaking out now! 😔

I'm 5 weeks today too and just got mines. I travel quite a lot for work so my midwife said it's safer for me to get it than it is to risk catching Covid. That's so reassuring! Thank you! I seem fine so far just a sore arm. Read a lot on fevers after I got it though, think I'm just over analysing it all! Xx

Hi, I had my first at 4 / 5 weeks, didn’t know I was pregnant, then second at 12 weeks. Baby is fine, has no side effects from the jab aside from a stiff arm. There is plenty of research now emerging showing the jab Dosent cause miscarriage etc, x
