    Dear ILs,

    I am 29 weeks pregnant currently living in Hong Kong. I have not been given any vaccinations as of now. I was told that in India they administer tetanus shot which when i asked the doctors here clearly told me it is not required here and the baby would be given this shot few weeks after birth.
    I would like to compare the other vaccines(if any) that are administered to pregnant women in India , with what they do here. Went around the forum and was able to find the list of vaccines for new borns. But none for pregnant women..
    Thanks in advance:)
