COVID Vaccine - Pregnancy & Breastfeeding
If you are trying to get pregnant, are currently pregnant (or think you could be pregnant), or breastfeeding, you may have questions about whether or not to receive the COVID-19 vaccine.
The “COVID Vaccination in Pregnancy” working group at the University of Massachusetts Medical School-Baystate created a great resource including a downloadable guide to help you make your decision specifically in reference to the two currently available vaccines (Pfizer or Moderna). We encourage you to review this information as part of your research into whether or not to receive the vaccine based on an informed decision and your personal circumstances.
