Fam need advice.. I’m struggling in my rl lately. My gf and I met virtually on social media and have been together for almost a year. Things are great normally, but whenever there comes a bit spark of argument, my gf just turned into someone else, very emotional every time, keeping this it’s all your fault attitude… She tends to go to extremes and often times went too much, e.g., she bent (hurts a lot atm but fingers ok) my fingers as part of couple fun fights (it started with her pinching me)…
In Germany they refuse to give vaccinations to pregnant women citing reasons like there are not enough tests done yet to prove this is helpful/not harmful
Also waiting until after I give birth. It’s too new and only emergency approved. Not enough is known on what the possible side effects are for baby. I also knew if anything went wrong I’d forever wonder if it was because I got vaccinated and would never forgive myself.
I got dose 1 before I was pregnant and then skipped dose 2 when I missed my period. My reason being was that while my doctor recommended it, he wasn’t very enthusiastic or confident. It’s still so new, I didn’t want to risk my body having a strong immune response from the vaccine while pregnant. My husband, parents, sister, in laws, and best friends are all vaccinated and I still work from home so I went with my 60% (or whatever it is from Pfizer dose 1) immunity and will reconsider when I’m further along in my pregnancy.

Same here minus getting the first shot. Too new for my comfort and not in a very vulnerable situation (while working from home and only being around careful ppl). Will reconsider in either late trimester or posts labor.

Kids will soon receive approved Pfizer vaccine which is same as adults - https://amp.miamiherald.com/news/coronavirus/article251329998.html , similarly babies age 2+ will soon be approved for the same vaccine. Another link here which talks about the study recently conducted by reputed NEJM for the safety of mRNA based vaccines(only Pfizer & Moderna, not J&J or Astra) - https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2104983

Pretty sure everything is emergency approval right now
I’m 37 weeks and I am getting vaccinated after I give birth. The baby can get antibodies through breast milk and that at least gives me some comfort. Those around me and baby have been vaccinated, so that’s good enough for now.
