Im 37 weeks and got both of my Pfizer shots now. I have asthma and also had a relative pass from covid this year who had no prior health conditions so I was extremely scared about covid. I have a 18 month old and my husband also is fully vaccinated. I have been ataying home still these last few weeks bc I just got my second shot a week ago & also because no one is wearing a mask in my county & I am nervous I could still get covid just without the bad symptoms and pass it to my toddler. Also don’t want to test positive while in labor.

Anyways - my mother is the one who really made me feel confident in my decision to get vaccinated while pregnant and to keep unvaccinated people away from toddler & newborn with the new delta variant going around bad in my area.

My mom & my husbands father are really the only fully vaccinated people in our families so they will be allowed around the babies with masks on. Well I had to tell my siblings , my dad and his wife that I was sorry but this is what we are doing and I’m not willing to risk it no matter how crazy I look. And Ite very sad for me too .

They don’t want the vaccine and that’s there right but now my mother who was saying yeah if your dad doesn’t want to get vaccinated that’s his own choice and not your fault that he can’t be around the babies is now telling me that I should let my unvaccinated sister be around as long as she gets a rapid covid test and wears a mask (I’m really close with my sister so doing this is breaking my heart but she goes to parties every weekend , she’s 21 and is constantly in groups and going to events. ) my mom is now trying to push on me that as long as any unvaccinated person wears a mask and gets the rapid test that it’s completely safe.

I don’t feel comfortable with it & I have read that the rapid test can be inaccurate for the new delta strain. I feel so pressured by everyone (my mom trying to make me believe what she’s saying , my sisters who are hurt and cry on the phone to me about how much they miss us , my dad who is being supportive about it but his wife constantly making comments like well when can we see them then if we aren’t getting vaccinated ?) I have no idea. I feel stuck and stressed and sad
