In the event your mom and aunts worst fears are right: pregnancy complications, risk to your baby or yourself.

In the event youre right: Baby gets antibodies to covid.

I say their concern is justified. Baby will grow up and get the vaccine yearly like we all probably will. I personally wouldnt risk it but youre obviously gonna do you and if your immediate family aint stopping you obviously you dont care what we have to say.

Or you know, the very worst case scenario

No matter what way anyone in your life tries to spin this, you're doing your best to be a good mother and taking the advice of a qualified professional. It'd be nice to get support on that from family, but it kind of is what it is what it is. Get ready for many years of her undermining your already difficult choices

I think thats why Im annoyed. Just this constant scrutiny now on my choices. I had told my aunt that my husband is taking FMLA after my maternity leave and she started giving me shit about how men shouldnt stay home to take care of babies and he should be working instead of taking a pay cut, etc

Or my mom insisting I eat certain foods to produce breast milk. And I told her Im not going to stress myself about it, if I cant breastfeed Im fine with formula. Then a few days later she tells me she bought some tea for me to produce breast milk. Sigh.
