DS (20MO) was diagnosed with hand, foot and mouth and chicken pox this week.
I am coming up 27 weeks pregnant so I've had to have a blood test as I have never had chicken pox before.
I haven't taken DS out all week expect for a run around in our garden.
My family keep telling me that it is not fair to keep him in and he should be going out, I completely disagree because I know how chicken pox can affect vulnerable people. I get the same comment everyday how I am doing wrong by DS and that it wouldn't matter if we went out, I would like to hear what other people think about this?
I will wait until we both have the all clear by the GP as I feel that this is only fair on other people, the comments from my family are getting under my skin now.
