Pregnant women should receive flu vax and TDAP, the latter preferably in the third trimester.
Do NOT administer MMR or Varicella during pregnancy. The decision about COVID vaccination can occur after a discussion between a patient and the provider. ACOG recommends that this vaccine should not be withheld from pregnant patients who meet the criteria for vaccination.
