A few recommended..: Tetanus vaccine is recommended during each pregnancy, ideally between 27-36 weeks, so yours seems to have been given early. Tdap (tetanus/diphtheria/pertussis) is preferred to TT (tetanus toxoid). Influenza (flu) vaccine is also recommended during pregnancy. Hepatitis A and B vaccines may be given if indicated. Other vaccines should be avoided during pregnancy, but given after delivery if needed.
