Covid 19 vaccine for lactating mother.
Hello,
My friend is 35 years old and she is having an 1 year girl child and she is a lactating mother.
We are planning to get her vaccinated with covid 19 but we are very confused about it.
As some people are suggesting not to take it and vice versa.
Kindly suggest if it is okay for her to get the covid 19 vaccine or no? Is there any side effect on the child??
Thanks

You should definately go for vaccination as for scientific studies nothing evidence that these antibodies can cross through breast milk. secondly if mother is at risk of getting corona than baby also has same effect.
