Covid vaccine to be taken as and when available.
If it’s normal delivery you can get vaccinated after 6 was postpartum period.
No effect on baby or on feeding.
Only thing after vaccination is wear mask while handling and feeding the baby as to prevent effects of unmasking of virus infection.
Next Steps
Take adequate rest.
Health Tips
