If you've had it twice you should be immune (fingers crossed) which would mean baby should be all good, if however you aren't immune I believe it can be quite serious. Either way I would ring you m/w or go see your gp asap

Good luck for tomorrow, I have my fingers crossed that your boy just has some random weird spots and not the pox

You can be tested for immunity but it takes about a week for the results to come back!!! Not particularly helpful i know

Apparently i'm all good as I'm over the 1st trimester so no worries. I had a super bad batch when I was 25 was in hospital etc, so if i'm not immune now, i'll never be!

I dont wanna be alarmist but when I studied human development 1 at Massey I'm sure we learnt that chicken pox can affect bubs right throughout pregnancy not just in the 1st tri. Cause of that I always stressed about it when I'm preggers cause I've never had it myself so am at risk
