Vaccine remorse - reassurance?

Question

For the last 10 days I've had intense allergies/rhinitis to the point where my Dr had me Covid tested twice - both negative. Dr suggested I get vaccinated when I'm comfortable and said there aren't any trimester recommendations. I am 7 weeks today. 
Being in that vulnerable, emotional state I thought "OK this isn't Covid but look at how I feel? Covid would be awful" and I got my first vaccine the next day (yesterday) after browsing a few message boards and doing empirical research. 
Today I've been speaking to relatives in healthcare and they've all said their patients should do it in the second trimester or later on, if they're comfortable. I feel like I made the wrong decision and now every normal pregnqncy ache, cramp or feeling of wetness has me on edge. I'm a remorseful mummy today. I doubt I'll get the second dose as scheduled - maybe down the line. 
Has anyone had any experiences (not opinions) with

this that they'd like to share? Positive/negative are both welcome.

Answer

Covid is high risk to pregnant women. So just cause some people had okayish symptoms when they had Covid doesn’t mean you will. 
Speak to any healthcare working in L&D. With the delta variant running rampant It’s hell for both the moms and babies. My uncle is an OB and on a weekly basis has to perform emergency csections cause the moms need to get ventilated which can’t happen during pregnancy. Babies get born as early as 28 weeks and both mom and baby go to icu and the nicu. Some moms don’t make it. This isn’t a rare story anymore. It happens all too often. Know what those moms could have done to prevent it? Getting vaccinated. Vaccinating against Covid protects you from getting hospitalized by 90%+. 
As for you not feeling well after the vaccine, this is a good thing, it means your body is working at producing antibodies so once the real thing comes your body will know what to do. Secondly, this is your first trimester still, you’re 7 weeks which is the most common time to be feeling like shit.

Answer

The only reason they say to get it after first trimester is bc miscarriage rates are higher the first trimester naturally and if you get the vaccine but also happen to miscarry, people will blame the vaccine when it has nothing to do with it. That’s what my OB told me anyways. I got it while TTC but def would have gotten it while pregnant if I needed to go protect myself.

Answer

I’ve heard to wait until the second trimester if you’re at all hesitant. My own OB said it didn’t matter, but some women feel better once they can feel the baby move, and it’s less stress. It’s nothing to do with being harmful, whatsoever. Even the ACOG recommends it at any trimester.

Answer

The risk of fever as a side effect is a reason that many providers recommend waiting until the second trimester as a high fever can be dangerous for baby. However, my OB said that it’s rare for a fever to reach the danger point due to the vaccine. It sounds like you were vaccinated long enough ago that fever shouldn’t be a concern. Try to rest easy, you’ve made a decision to protect you and baby. You’ve done nothing wrong.

Answer

I somehow plan to have my last doze later. I have high risk pregnancy and just do not want to add up something that early

Answer

I have always heard to wait until after the first trimester

Answer

I was approved to get it in my first trimester by my OB. I was working in a restaurant at the time and my chances of getting COVID were high. I ended up getting put on bed rest right after this conversation because I had an emergency cerclage (100% unrelated to COVID just to be clear). With bed rest and not leaving my house, I ended up getting the vaccine at 27 and 30 weeks. A big reason I waited was because I’m hoping my baby can be born a good amount of antibodies. 
Basically, if it weren’t for bed rest, I absolutely would have gotten both doses in my first trimester!

Answer

It’s recommended to get it in the later trimesters and NOT the first trimester (I saw some other comments about it) the know that it’s extremely low chance of causing miscarriage in the later trimesters, but sadly there are soooo many unknowns in the first trimester that they don’t know of it does cause miscarriage or not. 
If you’re worried wait for the second trimester. I’m not getting it at all while pregnant because I tried for 2.5 years for this baby and had several losses so I’m personally not risking my baby.

Answer

I don’t see why which trimester would matter, the vaccine doesn’t cause miscarriages and evidence shows that. Maybe for the antibodies to be passed to baby it’d be best in the third trimester like with the tdap shot, but if they’re talking about safety then it’s safe in any trimester. I got mine in the second trimester and baby is perfectly fine, like literally a week after the first trimester passed cause that’s when it was finally available for me.

Answer

I’ll pray for you
