I think my DS has got chicken pox....great timing as I am 37 weeks pregnant.

I do think I have had chicken pix as a child but what are the risks to the baby?

I did look at NHS site which has made me feel worse. Has anyone any experience of this?

No experience but I didn't want to leave your post unanswered. I do know if you had chicken pox as a child you most likely have developed immunity so it is highly unlikely you would catch it. I think you can be tested for immunity so maybe see your Dr if you're worried. But the chances of you getting it really are very low.
