Do i need to wait to conceive if i have recently been vaccinated?

Yes: If vaccinated with an attenuated live virus vaccine (like the chickenpox vaccine or mmr), it is recommended to wait at least a month before conception. These type of vaccines should not be given when someone is pregnant.

Vaccination/pregnanc: You need to wait if you've been given a vaccine with live virus. If the vaccine is viral protein or killed virus there is no reason to wait. Check with your physician who gave you the vaccine.

Depends on vaccine: While live attenuated vaccines require you to wait, others such as the flu vaccine and the tdap do not. They're routinely given to pregnant women.
