I went to the GP surgery with DS today for a routine appointment. While there, the nurse noticed a spotty rash on DS's legs, got the doctor, and it turns out that he's just started with chicken pox. The doctor said to keep him away from people until the spots have scabbed over, and specifically mentioned keeping him away from pregnant women.
Over the last few days, we've met up with a number of friends, including 2 women that I know to be pregnant. So after leaving the surgery, I rang my pregnant friends and informed them about DS's chicken-pox.
I figured that if they're not immune and have been exposed to chicken-pox via DS, then if they find out early, there's a better chance that something will be able to be done about it (I know there's vaccines and anti-viral medicines around that can be used against chicken-pox these days). But both of them told me that they'd had chicken-pox when kids, so hopefully they're both still immune anyway.
I spoke to DH later, and he told me that I had been stupid and should not have mentioned DS's chicken-pox to my pregnant friends, because "Now if they have deformed babies they'll blame us" 
DH is also scoffing at the notion of DS having chicken-pox, despite not having seen DS's spotty rash.
WIBU to tell my pregnant friends about DS's chicken pox?
