Get the COVID-19 vaccine? For pregnant or breastfeeding women it can be a tough decision

Michelle Sakala initially planned to hold off on getting the vaccine that protects against COVID-19.  She is a nurse with FirstHealth Moore Regional Hospital and was eligible to receive it. But she was also breastfeeding her infant daughter, Monroe (think “Monroe” the president, not Marilyn, says Sakala, whose older daughter is named Kennedy.)  “I initially said no to the vaccine when it was first offered to me,” says Sakala, who is 35 and married to an Army major. “Just because it wasn’t advised for women, or the hospital said, ‘We don’t advise you receiving the vaccine if you’re breastfeeding.’
