Can a pregnant or breastfeeding mother get the jab?

You should, and there is no risk beyond any other person so far reported. It is no disadvantage and probably advantageous also to your infant.

Yes, the risk of having COVID disease and the side effects from THAT condition far outweighs the very small risk of side effects from the vaccine. Just as you would have other vaccines to protect your baby, this is an important one to have.
