Vaccines during pregnancy??

[stephanieginter]

I may be pregnant, very early in pregnancy about 3 weeks and I got 3 vaccines today before I knew it wasn't the safest thing to do.

I got Tetanus, Chicken Pox and Gardasil (HPV), will my baby be ok if I am in fact pregnant?

You should post this in the Vaccinations forum. You will surely get good info there.

Edited to add: It looks like they moved it.

I would consult with your health care provider.

Chickenpox vaccine is contraindicated for pregnant women. The HPV vaccine is also contraindicated, although there is this:

Any woman who learns she was pregnant when she got the HPV vaccine is encouraged to call the HPV Vaccine in Pregnancy Registry at [phone]. Information gathered from this registry will help experts learn how pregnant women respond to the vaccine.

Tetanus vaccine is not contraindicated for women. You might want to find out more about the vaccine you had and find out what was in the vaccine (for example, did it have thimerasol?)

Good luck, and I hope you get some answers from your HCP.

I would make sure you are getting enough vitamin A.

Did they not ask you if you could be pregnant?

Did you not have chicken pox? There is a pregnancy registry for Varivax too.
