After MMR vaccine

[medin]

Hi, i have a concern. My toddler had an mmr vaccine and now he has a mild measles rash. I know as it was the side effect of it. But my concern as i am pregnant again is can i get sick from him now? As it is active vaccine

Have you been vaccinated?

As far as I know the rah is not measles so therefore you cannot get measles from your child.

Have you had your MMR? I missed mine at school and they gave it to me in my 20s

Depends if you’ve had MMR.

I’m a teacher and during my first pregnancy a child in my class had the live MMR vaccine and had to be moved to another class for a couple of weeks even though I had had it. I had to have a blood test to check that I had the antibodies and wait for the results. More difficult with your own child though!

I had vaccine but only one somehow and i do not know if i have an imunity :( nobody warned me before this vaccine that i might get sick from my child. Now i am scared...

They test you for immunity to rubella during pregnancy, if you were immune to that then it's most likely you were vaccinated with MMR. If they didn't mention needing vaccination to you before now then I wouldn't worry.
I had rubella as a baby and was hospitalised with it, I had the MMR at 4yr. My husband didn't have MMR until he joined the military at 16yr.

Call your gp or midwife. They usually test to see if your immune to certain things during all the blood test.

I know I had both Mmrs but for some reason my go thinks I only had one so o had a booster jab recently

In my country they do not test for these as we usually do not have outbreaks... well probably i will have to wait and see. Im just interested that there were no warming about that it might be a concern. I would have waited or smth...

I'm sure the info on nhs say the rash after MMR is not contagious

www.nhs.uk/conditions/vaccinations/mmr-vaccine/

If you scroll down and click on the common side effects it says the rash isn't contagious

They stopped testing for Rubella a few years ago: www.gov.uk/government/news/rubella-susceptibility-screening-in-pregnancy-to-end-in-england

I haven't had an MMR as it didn't exist when I was younger. I got the rubella vaccine at school and probably the measles vaccine as a baby.
