[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So you got pregnant in March? Why didn't you get vaccinated before getting pregnant? [/quote]

In March only high risk people and certain professions were eligible.[/quote]

You couldn't wait a month or two? So selfish and stupid. And I am someone who needed fertility treatments to get pregnant so don't even go there. [/quote]

Gross, PP. 
I was pregnant in March (second tri) and got vaccinated then. DC considered pregnant people part of the high risk category.
I got vaccinated because I was nervous about catching COVID at the hospital. I had a high risk pregnancy (twins) and spent a lot of time at Washington Hospital Center due to my various appointments and ultrasounds. I WFH, we kept our older child in virtual school for the year, I didn’t have any other real risk factors other than the amount of time I was spending in WHC. I was afraid I’d catch COVID and end up on a ventilator, having an emergency c section. I also did NOT want to risk having severe side effects (fever, fatigue) from the vaccine when I had newborns to take care of. Both my OB and MFM were explicit that I should get vaccinated as soon as possible.
I got my first dose of Moderna in the second trimester and my second at the beginning of the third. I had zero side effects other than a sore arm both times. My twins are healthy, happy two month olds now and I felt much safer during my hospital stay knowing we all had COVID antibodies.

Actually what's gross is knowingly putting your unborn baby, self and larger society at risk because of your selfishness. 
I have zero patience for anti-vaxxers. If they don't want to be called out they should stfu. [/quote]

Anti-vaxxers? Being skeptical of one vaccine that is new does not make someone anti-vaxx.[/quote]

That's the thing though, you people are all the same to us. I don't care about your reasons for not getting it. Refusing to get it is refusing to get it. You're anti-vaxx, end of story. If you want to take this position you better figure out how to own it. [/quote]
