Q: I have a very urgent quetsion and I hope you will give me the anser on it. Lat week I have made 2 vaccines - against grippe and 3rd vaccine against hepatitis (combinated A&B), also I was visiting dentist and I had x-ray and anaesthesia . This week I have discovered that I am pregnant (2 or 3 weeks). I am worried how these vaccines affect the baby and I am confused what to do now... Please give me your advise and opinion!
A: It is understandable that you are concerned about this. The flu (grippe) and hepatitis vaccine can be used in pregnancy and there is only a theoretical risk that it can hurt the fetus. Typically, xrays should be avoided during pregnancy. You would not be the first person who has been in this situation. I cannot give you advice and really it is not in your best interest to make a decision based on information obtained from the web. Please see an obgyn doctor for further counseling about your risks and they can help you through a decision.
Here is a link to the CDC which has information regarding the safety of vaccines in pregnancy.
