What is vaccination?
Vaccination is one of the most effective ways to protect your health and the health of your baby. During pregnancy, your immune system is weakened, making you more susceptible to infection. Vaccination can help to protect you from serious diseases that can harm you and your baby.

Tdap is safe and effective for pregnant women, and it can help to protect you and your baby from these diseases.
