Great. DD might have chicken pox

Just what I need with a newborn on the way!

I'll find out later today for sure. Has anyone else had this happen?  DD was immunized but I guess kids can get a mild case anyway.  I've had it twice...

I'm sorry but I would freak! My 19mo dd has had a fever for 3 days. I can't imagine going in on Wed to have the baby and her not being able to visit because she's sick.... HOLD OUT TILL THE 20th!! that's your best bet :)

I'm going to call my OB tomorrow. The docs aren't sure if it's chicken pox or not.  We just have to watch her over the next few days.  If it gets worse (which it hasn't in 24 hours) it is likely pox.  

My biggest concern is that the baby will come any minute and get exposed to it.  If he waits until May 20 (induction) we should be safe.

Just what I need!

my son had them 2x after he had the immunization.  The last time was when I must have been just pregnant and my dr did not seem bothered by it.  Not sure, but have you called your ob to check on it?
