Could Pregnancy Immediately After Rubella Vaccination Be Dangerous?

Hi, I'm 31 yrs. I got vaccinated with Rubella recently and my Doctor asked me to use protection in order to prevent from getting pregnant for the next three months. After about a week i had unprotected sex and was worried i might get pregnant. Within 24 Hrs i took my first postino and 2nd pill after 12-16 hrs. I have missed my periods for this month and worried whether I'm pregnant. In any case If i am will my baby be effected?

Dear member      ,
Thanks for writing .
Ideally pregnancy should be avoided for 3 months after vaccine.
Though there have been no risks recorded in similar patients till date.
You can discuss with your gynaecologist regarding the same.
Thanks
