Which injections are given during pregnancy?

Question

I just found out I'm pregnant and my first doctor's visit is next week. I'm a bit nervous about all the procedures. Can someone tell me which injections are typically given during pregnancy?

Mostly Tetanus injections are given to everyone. Your gynac will guide you on any other specific ones you might need.

For standard pregnancies, it's mostly Tetanus shots. But if you have special circumstances or went through fertility treatments, you might have progesterone or blood thinner injections, which require extra care and patience.

Haan, Tetanus Toxoid (TT) toh zaroor lagta hai sabko do baar. Aur agar iron ya progesterone ki kami ho toh doctor alag se dete hain na, ghabrana mat bilkul.

Basic Tetanus injections are very cheap and done at any local clinic or govt hospital. Make sure to check with your doctor beforehand so you can plan your maternity package budget properly.

I just got my first Tetanus shot last week! Do we also need to get a flu shot or is that optional?
