We might travel to Brazil to visit family after Christmas and were going to have our last FET in Nov just before. If it's a BFP we will cancel the trip but I only just realised that I need some vaccinations topped up. Yellow Fever and maybe rabies. My travel clinic says they they would not recommend the YF vaccine to someone that is already pregnant and I did mention to them that I was in the middle of IVF.
My clinic said the following 'I have put your question towards Dr....who states you need to check with your travel clinic who you are getting your vaccines done by. This is because normally with most vaccines they say not to get pregnant for 4 weeks, however Dr..... suggests checking with them to check which type of vaccine it is (?live vaccine) and their recommendations.
If I wait to have the FET when we come back late Jan I will need to wait 2 months due to the clinic's ZIKA recommendations.

Do you have time to squeeze in the yellow fever vaccine by doing it right now? Where are you going in Brazil? There's a measles outbreak in SP at the moment, also something to think about if you're possibly pregnant. Good luck with your FET xxx
Thank you so much for replying Miss SP. We are going to Brasilia for a couple of days then Salvador, Recife, North East Coast for one week and then one week in Rio.
Yes, I've got yellow fever vaccine booked in for 5 Nov. If I get a positive preg test we will not travel. Thank you! xx
