Looking for some advice ,
My nephew came to mine today and I was looking after him , when he got home he started to have an outburst in spots , he has been told he has chicken pox however I've already been near him and I'm just over 10 weeks pregnant is there anything or I should do, or can do incase I catch them my sister knows she can't bring her son around me till there gone. Also can chicken pox if I got them harm the baby , any advice would be much appreciated x

@leighjamie99, Is this your first baby too hun? Everything is always scarier with your first as you don’t know what to think in some situations or who to believe. I didn’t enjoy my first pregnancy at all as I was always stressing about something 😩x
@rochelledacostabest @melanie-spiritmedium thankyou both honestly helped a lot I was worrying a lot because I have my nephew quite a lot while my sister works as we both work opposite shifts x
@rochelledacostabest, Yeah that’s true about being immune if you’ve had it before hun it doesn’t matter how long ago it was. It’s just worrying isn’t it when you’re not sure x
@leighjamie99 and @melanie-spiritmedium I.have literally just come back from. My midwife appointment and have a similar dilemna. My husband and I are meant to be babysitting my nephew who has chickenpox and I'm 28 weeks. I've had it when I was about 8 so I thought if be OK but my husband was adamant he can't come to the house for a Month! I asked my midwife and she said if I've had it then baby and I are immune and it's absolutely fine. I trust her word over my husbands!
@leighjamie99, It’s possible to get them more than once, my daughter actually did but it’s not very common so try not to worry. I’d still give your gp or midwife a call tomorrow just for advice to stop you worrying x
Oh okaii can't u get them twice tho chicken poxs ? X
@leighjamie99, If you’ve had them before even as a kid then you and baby will be immune now. It’s dangerous for pregnant women who’ve never had them x
@melanie-spiritmedium that's good then hopefully I don't get that I just worry a lot , I had them when I was little once but not since I'm going to wait to see if I get any spots hopefully I don't x
Just to put your mind at rest a bit hun the chances of the chickenpox virus harming your baby are usually less than 2% so very small chance. Have you had them yourself?x
@olivia161 I'm going to ring my midwife tomoz to see what she says hopefully I don't catch it x
I miscarried last year at 9 weeks I think that's why I stress a lot more with this pregnancy but I know everything healthy I've had several scans I just worry a lot because like you said I don't know what should or shouldn't happen x
