Is the influenza vaccine safe during pregnancy?

By Mary Sharman, edHelperBaby

Question
           Is the influenza vaccine safe during pregnancy?       

       The influenza vaccine is recommended by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists "...in the second and third trimester during the flu season, and women at high risk for pulmonary complications regardless of the trimester."

       Studies of influenza immunization of more than 2,000 pregnant women have demonstrated no adverse fetal effects associated with influenza vaccine.
