After more than a year of parenting in a pandemic, moms around the US can finally see light at the end of the tunnel thanks to the COVID-19 vaccine.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warn that side effects of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines—plus the Johnson & Johnson vaccine which was recently paused due to the risk of blood clots—include fatigue, soreness, headache and muscle pain. So… basically, the same side effects of having kids.

With all major stressors comes the need for comedic relief, so enjoy a laugh at these parents’ takes on the vaccine’s side effects. We know we could use it.

Nailed it.

Probably just a Wednesday.

Could be the pandemic brain fog, too.

But actually.

Only time will tell! Maybe.

No way of knowing.

Pretty much.

Wake me up two weeks after the second dose!

All of the above.

Still trying to figure this one out.

You’ve dealt with enough this year. Get vaccinated. (Learn more here.) Then go grab a really big drink with friends. You've earned it.
