All should be fine

you will be fine if you have already had it, its only if you havent that you need to worry. You will already have antibodies to the virus that will make you immune.

Here is a lilnk for some more info if you want it

You should be fine, having had chicken pox and been in good contact with it with your dc's your body should be immune. Mention it to your gp when you can, they may request a blood test to check your immunity. The risk is very teeny, try not to worry. HTH

Congratulations on your pregnancy. xxx
