Don't worry...you can take vaccine and it's safe in pregnancy... considering the duration of your pregnancy you can take either Covaxine or Covishield as you can take 2 nd dose before delivery either way.....Also if you have mild side effects then you can take paracetamol for that.

As per new guideline during pregnancy we men can take vaccine. But due lack of trial you must confirm it from your gynaecologist or the vacccinator
