Call the doctor/health dept. Where you
are getting the shot and ask them. I
don't think it will affect your chances of
getting pregnant, but I think that it
could effect the unborn child if you are.

I went to the health dept. To get a flu
shot, I told them I was pregnant and they
would not give it to me. They said it is
safe to get one in the 3rd to 4th
trimester. So if I were you I wouldn't
get one.
