Vaccinations during pregnancy are recommended to help prevent transmission of Pertussis or Whooping Cough to your baby when they are born. The SOGC also recommends the flu shot in pregnancy. Currently, Alberta Health Services and the Society of Obstetricians and Gynecologists of Canada, recommend that all pregnant people receive the COVID-19 vaccine.
We recognize that vaccinations are a personal choice and respect your ability to make an informed choice with information obtained through various sources. If you have any questions, please ask your midwife.
