Current guidelines doesn't recommend to take vaccine for lactating mother but itz been given in other countries. Due to the current status of covid 19 in india we are expecting a revision in the guidelines for vaccination of lactating mother soon. So please wait for the update and for the record there is no contraindication for you to get the vaccine

There is no trial on lactating mother for vaccine side effects but according to CDC vaccine is safe for lactating mother as by recent reports on mRNA vaccines have antibodies in breast milk which also protects child from covid.
