Pregnant - conceived while toddler had chickenpox, which preschooler got later. Help! Am worried!

[Roomonthebroom888]

I don’t know if I had chickenpox as a child or not (my mum not around anymore), and I can’t remember. I think so, though?

I am 5/6 weeks pregnant. Without realising - this baby was conceived while my toddler had chickenpox. Two weeks later, my preschooler got it (both an awful strain). Not long after that, I found out I’m pregnant.

Is my baby in danger? I didn’t get the chickenpox (yet). Is it only a problem if I do? I’m freaking out.

Only a problem if you catch it.
You can have a blood test to see if you are now immune having had it as a child.
Anyone in your family remember you having it as a child?
I caught it as an adult and got poorly just as my DS started to get better
