@karibeanato We did find that bubba avoided feeding from the breast on the vaccinated arm side, for about 48hours after. It may have been due to the vaccine or could just be how it was easiest to hold him with a sore arm!
@ibelive30 Get the booster while pregnant. A severe case of COVID during pregnancy is very dangerous

@ibelive30 Same. Boosted while pregnant. Multiple friends have had babies while after getting fully vaxxed during pregnancy. No radioactive third arms yet!

@candytails101 Us too. Vaxxed before pregnancy and boosted during. Same with all of our friends. Everyone is fine and has had mild covid if they got their breakthrough.

@ibelive30 Same. Wife got boosted in 1st trimester as recommended by OB. No issues so far (though it’s only been a couple of weeks)

@gracelandz Same. Wife got boosted during first trimester. No problem.
@randypnw Your wife needs to be vaccinated and boosted. Pregnant women are immunocompromised. I gave my wife a cold coughing and a short term sore throat for me… two ER trips for her.
Another cautionary tale, her bestfriend from high school got it at the end of her pregnancy and after she gave birth alone with covid she has yet to see her baby again as she is now on life support and the outcome is uncertain.
Please please please get vaccinated and have your wives get vaccinated. There is incredible asymmetrical risk and with how contagious the new varient is you should assume exposure.

@randypnw Both of us triple vaxxed she got the booster in first trimester to make sure the baby gets some of the antibodies as there have been reports out here of infants ending up in the ICU with COVID example story: https://toronto.ctvnews.ca/mobile/o...accine-cite-infant-covid-admissions-1.5728996

@randypnw Please get it! The outcomes for unvaccinated babies and moms are so scary. I work in health care and do direct patient care so being non vaccinated was never an option. I got my first two dose early on and conceived a couple months after. Had my booster during my second tri (yay @ some antibodies for baby!) and had a healthy baby boy almost 5 weeks ago! We actually were also in a study for an RSV vaccine as well. Will do anything to protect LO. Husband is also triple vaxxed!
@randypnw Husband is fully vaxxed and I've been boosted. It was a huge relief for me that we had them when he tested positive for COVID right before Christmas. He had a fever and a few symptoms I didn't have, but we both made it through okay and so far our little girl is doing just fine, very active and ahead of schedule growing. We're almost 26 weeks now.
While I understand the hesitancy in getting a relatively new vaccine, especially during a delicate time like pregnancy, for me it was definitely the right choice. I wouldn't have wanted to risk her by getting a more severe case and now she can have the antibodies without having to go through the side effects directly.
