Abstract
Objective: Vaccination plays a crucial role in the protection against the Covid 19 infection. However, pregnant and lactating women are excluded from clinical trials of vaccines due to the unknown effects of the vaccine on the expectant mother, fetus, and infant. Pregnancy and the following lactation periods are long processes with unique physiological, psychological, and pathological characteristics, in which many practices are discussed for the mother and the baby. Based on the limited data available on the mechanisms of action of vaccine types, Covid 19 vaccines cannot possibly cause any risk to pregnant women and nursing mothers. On the other hand, there is currently insufficient data on the safety of Covid 19 vaccines in pregnant and lactating women. Result and Discussion: Evidence-based and personalized information about vaccines is needed to support pregnant and breastfeeding women's decision-making about vaccines. Vaccination should be recommended to all pregnant and lactating women after they have been sufficiently informed about the advantage and risks of Covid 19 vaccines and their consent has been obtained. This brief review was conducted to discuss vaccination against Covid 19 infection during pregnancy and the lactation period based on scientific data and literature.
