Chicken Pox!!! ???? My little guy just got diagnosed with Chicken Pox! I'm busting out the baby mit outfits again!

Really?? Where do you live... Are there Agee more cases where live?? Have you held off on vaccines-just curious, bc I thought that's what the MMR vaccination is for??

MMR is measles, mumps and rubella.

The chicken pox vaccine is varicella and not give till between 12 and 15 months with 4-6 yr boosters.

Yes like pp said those arent given until at least a year. You will get through it op! Lol I got the chicken pocks at 3 months and then 3 years old. My dr told my mom when I was little that its more common than people realize

Yikes! Speedy recovery

Neither the chicken pox nor the MMR vaccine is given until 1 year, so even if op isn't delaying, baby still wouldn't have gotten the vaccines yet.

Praying for y'all.

Actually, he just got his 6months injections on Wednesday. He was fine then! No fever, no fussiness, nothing!

He started feeling poorly last night and had a red spot on his face. When he woke up this morning he had more spots I thought maybe he was having an allergic reaction to the vaccines so I took him back in.

If anyone is wondering, I'm living in Dublin, Ireland. They do not vaccinate for chicken pox here. Even if they did, it wouldn't be given until 12 months.

This sucks because I'm American and I was supposed to fly to the US with him next week! Not happening now!

Now your baby will have natural immunity.

Oh no ? so sorry to hear that! Hoping for a very speedy recovery

Thanks, everyone. He's a tough little dude. Taking it like a champ.

Thanks for clarifying ladies! Glad your lil man is handling it well. One of my favorite pics as a lil girl is when I had chicken pox. I had a pouty lil look on my face with lil red dots all over my face❤️
