So DD1 (4 years) has woken up this morning with several spots on her face, arms, tummy and back. Definitely Chicken Pox as 2 of her cousins have had them recently and she must've caught them this way.
I am 39 weeks pregnant but I have had both Chicken Pox and Shingles, I checked with midwife when my niece had them to see if I was OK to be around her, midwife said it was fine but she wouldn't recommend spending a huge amount of time with her, obviously, I don't have that choice with DD1. DD2 hasn't had them so am kind of hoping she gets them also so we kill 2 birds with one stone.
Should I let midwife know as I'm closer to my due date than I was when DN had them ? I will ring around everyone we have been in touch with the last week or so to let them know. Do I need the doctor to confirm it is CP or am I OK to just pressume it is ?
