Pregnancy is an exciting time that requires you to take control of your health for the health of your developing baby. In addition to eating nutritious foods and taking prenatal vitamins, it’s important to stay current on vaccines during pregnancy. In fact, you may want to consider vaccinations before conceiving for optimal pregnancy care.
“If you’re trying to become pregnant, then get vaccinated,” says Dr. Laura Riley, Chair of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Weill Cornell Medicine. “It’s not going to interfere with fertility or implantation. It’s certainly not going to harm your baby.”
