Ok, so DS is just getting over chickenpox. If DD doesn't contract it, what does that mean?

DS is 15 months, spots are just scabbing over. DD is 3.5 years and so I should imagine has been exposed to chickenpox numerous times, what with nursery and friends etc. and now with DS.

She has no sign atm of any spots. She was poorly a couple of weeks ago, nothing I could put my finger on, just out of sorts and was sick once, v tired all the time etc.

Could she have had chicken pox then, without any outward sign?

I agree Socci - my DS got it really badly, but DD was not nearly so bad.

Oh yes, even if she has had 5 spots, that's it - just by way of warning though, apparently I had it very mildly as a child, then got it again a year or so later.

my 8yr old ds has been exposed so many times and has still not had it,i have tried ,i bathed him every night with his sister he kissed lots of girls.i think he must be immune.

At last! I can't believe it took so long tbh. Now all you need to find out is, can K carry it and give it other people in his class?

And Iim still waiting
DS2 had it about a month ago, no sign of DS1 getting it. Is it possible to be immune without having had it iykwim?

I'll meet you in the playground after school on Monday. I won't be there in the morning as I have to take the dog back to the vets, but I'll be there in the afternoon.

R should still be contagious then shouldn't she?

Agree with Socci too-your dd has surely had it without you realising so thats a good thing.

I have never been aware of having chicken pox but i MUST of had it at some point!

He's been looking in the mirror for spots but ends up really disappointed because there aren't any.

I've 'bigged' it up,so he can't wait
