ttc and chicken pocks

by lpool, Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM
i just started my af on friday 5th jan my son then came home from school that day with the chicken pocks.
I am told there should be no risk ttc as i have had chicken pocks when i was a child and that by the the time i would concieve (if i got lucky say on day 14) and the egg would not have implanted then there will be no risk to the unborn baby?
The chicken pocks usually takes upto 2wks to go?? i am eager to start ttc again, but i don't want to risk another m/c.
Does anyone know about this sort of thing?

As long as you have had chicken poxs then the baby will be fine and not at any risk. Because you wont get it the baby can't get it through you. Hope your son gets better soon. Also they only need to be isolated and are contagious for 5 days after the rash breaks out. I have just had my daughter have them before christmas so I have checked on all of this. Good luck ttc.

My kids had chicken pox when I got preg with my last baby and everything was fine. I didn't get them and she wasn't affected. I was nervous too even though I knew I had them when I was young. You will be fine.
