You can postpond your scheduled vaccine and perform a upt test before going for vaccination.
If it comes negative you are safe to go for vaccination and if it is positive it is contraindicated for you to get vaccinated.

Although covid vaccine is contraindicated in lactation in 3rd trimester of pregnancy. There is no such problem in the early stages. Still, my advice would be to get an urine pregnancy test to confirm pregnancy. But go for covid vaccination on your scheduled time that is tomorrow

As if now if you are pregnant you should avoid to take vaccine, before going for the vaccination please do a urine pregnancy test. If it comes negative than you can go for vaccination.
