all the children I look after seem to have chickenpox

iv read up on it and it said if you've already had it when you were younger then you are immune, which I did, but when you read the potential complications to the baby if you get it, it's really scary.

think I'll ring the numbers off my green notes and see if I can get some advice about whether I need to stay away or not. I'm really worried :-/

Thank you for posting this - I was holding a little one who has now got chicken pox last Friday, and your comment prompted me to call the midwife and ask for advice. I'm not sure whether I had it when I was younger or not, but hadn't realised it could be a risk to the baby if I hadn't.

She's getting back to me tomorrow so fingers crossed they can check and find out I'm immune!!

Con what a gorgeous picture thank you for sharing

fireyfirenze

well done Lara

fingers crossed you'll be immune ema_o.

just feel the need to have a rant that anybody who has a midwife they can contact for advice is really lucky. iv just worked out I have made 17 phone calls over the last 2 days to ask for advice about chickenpox and still nobody has got back to me, I'm actually at wits end. to top it all off my OH has just text saying 'oh well it's only a risk to our unborn child. nothing to worry about' which has really upset me because what else can I do?! iv constantly rang people and left messages and been promised a ring back but nobody has bothered.

I'm meant to work a nightshift tonight in a child's home where the child's brother has chickenpox. I'm scared of ringing work up and saying I don't want to do it because it's too late notice really they won't get anybody to cover. my manager told me to ring occupational health (at work) yesterday and the nurse there said I'm immune to it. Then my best friend who's a nurse yesterday said you can get it twice! arghhh.

neverdespairgirl

Many congratulations, Dr. Lara!

The most important thing, after all, is that the baby and I get through the birth as healthily and safely as possible. I'm hoping for a VBAC, but it's not the end of the world if it doesn't work out that way.

As for big head, big brains - what will hold a lot will hold a little!
