Covishield
Hi
I want to get vaccinated against covid as iam planning to travel somewhere on 17 June. I delivered my baby 3 months back through c section. Also iam nursing and handling the baby. Can I continue to nurse my baby right after receiving the Covishield vaccination? And since I had a c section, receiving covishield would be safe?

Any vaccine amongst the available ones can be taken with minimal risk. The benefits outweigh the risk of the vaccine, according to the latest ICMR and CDC (United States) guidelines. The same guidelines also clarify that it is safe for lactating mothers.
There is no relationship between vaccination and c-section.
Next Steps
Go ahead with the vaccination.
