Unsure if i received the tdap vaccine/booster postpartum 3 yrs ago can i safely get the vaccine now (even though i am unsure if i already received it)?

Yes: Yes, this is no problem. I would also request your record from your birth hospital, you should be able to confirm definitively from the record whether you received the vaccine or not at that time.
