Ep 269: Vaccines & Pregnancy: Which ones, how they work, and why they’re important


Listen Later

In today's episode, you’re going to learn about vaccines and pregnancy. Vaccines -also called immunizations- are important in order to help prevent moms and babies from getting certain potentially serious infections. I know there’s a lot of concern about vaccines. But let me assure you, although vaccines are not risk free, they are very safe.

There are 2 vaccines that are recommended to be up to date prior to pregnancy - MMR and Varicella, as well as 4 vaccines that are recommended during pregnancy - Flu, Tdap, COVID, and RSV. I want to make sure you have the latest information in order to stay safe so you’re going to learn all about these and why they’re important in this episode.


In this Episode, You’ll Learn About:
  • How vaccines protect you and your baby
  • Whether vaccines are safe and effective (they are!)
  • Why the best time to get a couple of important vaccines (MMR and Varicella) is before you get pregnant
  • The four vaccines that are recommended and why - Flu, Tdap, COVID, and RSV
  • What the risks and side effects are
  • Which vaccines are not safe during pregnancy
