Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsHas any woman had a baby since she or her husband had taken their vaccine jab?
How did it change their DNA? How did it affect the fetus? Were there any born with two heads? What kind of health problems were they born with?
Is there any info on this subject?
Would this be good info for those still hesitant about taking the vaccine?

(10,068 posts)got the vaccines early, before even the 75+ group, so it is possible. Don't know of any personally who were pregnant, though.

This Is the Truth: Fertility Unaffected by COVID Vaccines
This is the truth: There is zero scientifically based evidence that vaccines affect fertility.
And that goes for men as well as women.
Here are some additional truths about COVID-19 vaccines and pregnancy:
- During the COVID-19 vaccine clinical trials, participants were asked to not get pregnant. Despite this request, 23 women became pregnant after receiving the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine as part of the clinical trials.
- No adverse effects were reported by those women.

You can't always get trial participants to follow instructions...

(19,549 posts)I have a friend whose currently pregnant, fully vaccinated, and just reached out to me because her doc is about to have her get the Moderna booster. I had mine a week ago and she had questions.
Spoiler alert: I'm fine after my Moderna booster.

(4,515 posts)She did have preeclampsia and was in the hospital on bed rest and steroids to strengthen the babys lungs for 6 weeks before they induced an early labor. Both she and the baby are fine (and the baby is gorgeous!).
She had a mild case of the virus way back in the beginning of the pandemic and has since been fully vaccinated. She is obese, and there is a history of diabetes on both her and her husbands sides of the family. The docs said these were the likely drivers behind the preeclampsia, not the virus or vaccines.
So, not a good anecdote for antivaxxer morons. Theyd never believe it wasnt caused by the vaccine. Im just so happy for them. Theyve been trying for a baby for a long time and had nearly given up hope.
