Did anyone get a 4th COVID vaccine during pregnancy? I already have 3 from pre-pregnancy but I feel hesitant about the next booster since I’m pregnant. I’m due in Nov which is ultimate germ season so I can see why it would be good but equally I don’t feel as comfortable having it pregnant. I also caught COVID in June for the first time so 🤷🏽‍♀️

Yes, NYC-based. I solicited feedback from my PCP and OB/GYN. Both practitioners recommended that I seek a second booster (4th vaccination shot) to extend protection to my baby until he is eligible for his own vaccine at 6 months.

My OB told me to get it but to wait until later in the fall because it should be more updated for the most recent variants and the longer it’ll give protection to the baby

I wanted to get it but nowhere near me would give it to me since the CDC isn’t recommending a second booster (4th shoot) for anyone under 50 with no immune compromising health conditions. I also live in a state where the governor has attempted to limit the Covid vaccines available to the general public in the first place so….

32 weeks pregnant and will be getting my 4th booster in a week. I had all three previous shots pre-pregnancy and want to pass on some immunity to baby before she can get hers at 6 months.

I’ve also consistently done intermittent fasting for two weeks, exercise 5x per week, and am eating better all to lose a whopping .5 lbs. SMH

Howdy…I need a sanity check! As part of my previous role, I reported security non-compliance and gross security misrepresentations. For my valiant efforts I was laid off (despite being a protected whistleblower) and my reports were buried. Everything I did was in line with my responsibilities. I was extremely concerned that systems housing personal credit data on all US consumers were not adequately protected. I essentially risked my job to protect data and I’m not sure if it mattered.

The company I work for (as a 1099 contractor) failed to have me complete a W-9. Therefore, they do not have my tax id number, but have already wire transferred me 10 months worth of pay (in exchange for 10 months worth of work).


Now, layoffs are happening. Just curious...what would happen if I never give them a W-9 or my tax ID number...
