I've just found out i'm pregnant and am really happy about it. The thing that is worrying me is that my youngest dd had chicken pox two weeks ago and my eldest has got it now. Am I at any risk? What do I need to do? I had chicken pox as a child I don't know if that makes a difference. Tia.

Ditto LadyintheR- if you had it as a child, you'll be immune. Try not to worry!

Thank you. So is it only a risk if you catch it yourself? I think I must be immune as when the youngest had it she had it severe so if I was going to catch it I would have caught it of her by now.

if you are worried can go to GP and get tested for immunity. but if he had it 2 weeks ago you'd probably have it by now if you weren't immune.

Thanks, you've put my mind at ease I was imagining all sorts.
