My gynac mentioned this injection last visit but i forgot to ask the exact timing. Now im 26 weeks and getting tension if i missed the window. When did u all take it?
Haan, ye vaccine toh generally third trimester mein lagti hai, kareeb 7th ya 8th month mein. Meri doctor ne mujhe week 30 ke aas-paas likha tha. Aap ek baar apne doctor se confirm kar lo na, wo sahi time bata denge.
During my check-ups at the hospital, the nurses and my doctor were super clear about scheduling the Boostrix vaccine. They told me it's best given between 27 to 36 weeks of pregnancy. You should definitely check with your hospital team during your next scan to get it scheduled.
When I was pregnant again, I was so scared of any injection or medicine affecting my baby. But my doctor assured me that Boostrix is very safe and necessary in the third trimester to protect the newborn. Please talk to your gynac and get it done exactly when they recommend it.
Boostrix is usually given in the third trimester, around the 7th or 8th month. It can cost around 1000-1500 rupees depending on the clinic, so plan your monthly medical budget accordingly. You can even check if your local government maternity center provides it for free or cheaper.
My saas was a bit confused when I told her about getting a vaccine in the third trimester, as she didn't have these in her time. But my doctor explained it protects the baby from whooping cough right after birth. I got mine around the 8th month, so definitely do ask your gynac about it.
