Earlier when we went for medical, we were expecting our first child and hence could not complete the MMR. Now again we are expecting our second child and what happens if there is an RFE?
Has anybody been in this situation. Please advice. Thanks.
 
In case of an RFE, my suggestion is to get a letter from one of the authorized doctors who would confirm that you are expecting a second child hence can't take MMR. You should be able to present your blood test reports confirming the pregnancy to the authorized doc. Also if possible go through a blood test for anitibodies in your blood (in case you went through this vaccination process before coming to USA).

I've been in the exact same boat. Nothing to worry about. The doctor will make a notation in the form saying she's pregnant and hence can't do the immunizations. You can still do the TB skin test though, even during pregnancy, but no chest Xrays.
