Pregnancy Info HOME

Hi, if it were me, I would not get it. I wouldn't even get it if I wasn't pregnant. They are basically putting a live virus into your body and it's almost the same thing as actually getting them except the vaccine also has other ingredients in it that certainly are not good for the body. Here is something I just read online.....

The effects of the varicella vaccine on a developing fetus are unknown. There is a theoretical risk of damage to the fetus if the vaccine is administered one month prior to, or during, pregnancy. In theory, the vaccine could cause birth defects similar to those that can occur from natural chickenpox (for example, limb abnormalities including absence or underdevelopment, abnormal brain development, mental retardation, scarring of the skin, and eye abnormalities). So far, there have been no cases reported to the registry of birth defects in babies born to mothers vaccinated during pregnancy.
