The Vaccine Inserts

There is no better place to find the actual risks associated with a vaccine than the vaccine insert. These are the vaccines given to our children. Starting with vaccines they are exposed to while in utero through 18 years.

The CDC recommends that pregnant women receive TDap (Tetanus, Dihptheria, Pertussis), Influenza, and Covid 19 vaccines. They also list "other" vaccines,

"Other vaccines- Some women may need other vaccines before, during, or after they become pregnant. For example, if a pregnant woman works in a lab or is traveling to a country where she may be exposed to meningococcal disease, her doctor or healthcare professional may recommend meningococcal vaccination."

  • Hepatitis B: A baby whose mother has hepatitis B is at highest risk for becoming infected with hepatitis B during delivery. Moms, talk to your healthcare professional about getting tested for hepatitis B and whether or not you should get vaccinated.

  • Hepatitis A: For pregnant women who have a history of chronic liver disease, doctors or healthcare professionals may recommend the hepatitis A vaccine.

  • Vaccines for travel: Pregnant people planning international travel should talk to their doctor or healthcare professional at least 4 to 6 weeks before their trip to discuss any special precautions or necessary vaccines. See Traveler’s Health for additional tips on how to prepare to travel safe
