It is worst at first trimester and in the last few weeks as then the baby may be born with it.

Thank you, for some reason I thought it was the middle months. I can relax a bit now, phew.

The 'dangerous' period is upto 20 weeks (i'm 17 weeks and my daughter has just had them.) A blood test can be done in a couple of days to check your immunity.
if you had them when you were younger, you will be immune.
Good Luck
