Bea, a nurse and pregnant woman, encourages other moms to get vaccinated against Covid like her, after passing the virus like a mild cold

Experts do not stop repeating the importance of pregnant women being vaccinated against Covid, the best help for their baby and for her, since it has been proven that pregnant women are a risk group.

Even so, future mothers continue to doubt the suitability of being immunized for fear of the reaction and the number of their hospital admissions after being infected with the virus continues to grow.

Perhaps the words of Bea, nurse, telling that the coronavirus has passed as if it were a cold after the vaccine, can encourage other indecisive pregnant women to be immunized against Covid . At least that was his intention when recording a video recounting his experience. The North Almería Health Management Area, to which the nurse belongs, has decided to share it.

His contagion became a mild cold for three days

Bea is in her last week of pregnancy and until just a few days ago she was immunizing people against Covid at the vaccination center of the Palace of the Mediterranean Games in Almería.

The nurse explains that less than a month ago, at 36 weeks of pregnancy, she began with a mild cold and a little cough, and taking into account the pandemic in which we are immersed and her pregnancy, she decided to have a PCR tet and left positive.

“I am clear that my baby will be born healthy, strong and the most protected in the entire hospital.”

She had given the first dose at week 28 of gestation and 21 days later completed the regimen. And he adds that it had no side effects:

“My experience with the vaccine and pregnancy … great.” I haven’t had any side effects, obviously the baby was fine, but I already knew about that because the vaccine is completely harmless for him. “

Even so, when the test came back positive for coronavirus, she admits that “all the fears in the world came to me, I was very scared.”

This is Bea, a pregnant nurse from the Mediterranean Games Palace vaccination team, and one of the first to get vaccinated. A few weeks ago the COVID happened and thanks to having the complete vaccination the consequences of the disease were mild. That is why it is essential to convey the importance of all PREGNANT WOMEN GETTING VACCINES for themselves and their babies.

She confesses that after talking with the doctor she was calmer, since “she had the complete schedule of the vaccine .” In fact, he points out that his contagion went from being a threat to a mild cold, especially a nasal cold, which lasted three days, although he was quarantined for ten more days as established in the protocol against the virus. A new PCR has confirmed that he no longer has it.

Smiling at the camera, Bea asks expectant mothers to get vaccinated to protect their babies.

“If we mothers have something, it is a protective instinct and if there is a way to protect our babies, it is by vaccinating them.”

The Ministry of Health recommends vaccination of pregnant women, preferably from week 14. Even so, it clarifies that no problem has been detected with the vaccine in other trimesters of pregnancy, neither for the mother nor for the baby.
