Chicken pox, corona and pregnancy

[booklover164]

Okay to add to the stress of last night's news, I think my 19mo has chicken pox. He was with another 19mo at the weekend whose mother thinks he has it too. I have attached pics and don't know if these are the early stages? Can I be near him? I'm only 6+5 so very early days. Thank you

Chicken pox is totally fine so long as you’ve had it. My daughter had it while I was in the first trimester & I spoke to my GP and midwife.

If you haven’t had it or are unsure, speak to your doctor for advice.
