I am 17 weeks pregnant and want to know if i should get the covid vaccine or not? i'd need all three. i had the flu vaccine due to the rise in cases but unsure about the studies of covid vaccine on pregnant women. i just want to protect my baby?

It is generally recommended that pregnant women get the COVID-19 vaccine unless you have a medical contraindication. COVID-19 can be dangerous for your unborn baby; the vaccine is safe for you & your baby. Please discuss further with your obstetrician
