  • MMR (Measles, Mumps, and Rubella)
  • Pregnancy and Postpartum Considerations

Can we give an MMR to a 15-month-old whose mother is 2 months pregnant?

Yes. Measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine viruses are not transmitted from the vaccinated person, so MMR vaccination of a household contact does not pose a risk to a pregnant household member.
