Vaccine in pregnancy

Hello,
I am currently 10 weeks pregnant - a high risk pregnancy for multiple reasons so miscarriage risk is high. I have both my vaccinations early in the year and have been invited like everyone else for my booster.
Without wanting to open a can of worms, what is your opinion on taking the booster in pregnancy? I’m fully for vaccinations, as previously having the first 2 but i’m scared of the risks and complications that it may cause since there is little to no research on pregnant women. I feel like medical professionals only push for it without explaining the risks too and i would like to know both sides.

Thank you.

ah yes the same health professionals who also used to prescribe thalidomide for morning sickness as that was deemed safe

do you decline other treatments from HCP on the same basis, or just use this as a reason not to have this particular vaccination? do you refuse ultra sound scans, blood transfusions and surgery from these same people that got it wrong on a morning sickness drug?

No because they've been around more than a year ☺️
