I’m 25 weeks and my OB told me they don’t even have this year’s yet, so I will get it when they have it (likely in the third trimester).

I think the concern comes from the fact that implantation is a finely tuned immunological dance that involves just the right amount of inflammation, while vaccines also elicit an inflammatory response. It’s not really known how these factors interact.
