Dr. Spock isn’t the only required reading these days, when you’re expecting, and when you need a break from books, there’s now a world of podcasts for expecting parents, too.
At Conceptions Florida, they receive five to 10 calls a day from patients worried about the vaccine and fertility.
“I’ve been through so much already that I was scared. We didn’t know enough about the virus,” said Natalie Rey, a patient at Conceptions Florida.
Dr. Jennifer Schell, an OBGYN, says she has also received dozens of questions on Instagram about the vaccine. This prompted her to upload posts addressing vaccine misinformation. As a mother, it is normal to have some hesitation and some fear of something that is new, and it is true there are no long-term studies, but there are also no long-term studies on what this virus can do to your body, Dr. Schell said.
