Pregnant and chickenpox?

My daughter is telling me she is itchy. I know it's really bad to be around anybody who has chickenpox if I am pregnant. Has anybody had kids with chickenpox while you were pregnant? How did you deal with it?

Have you had your daughter vaccinated for chicken pox I was born in the 80s so it was normal for everyone to get chicken pox you really don't hear about it these days . I honestly can't say I've even herd of anyone getting chicken pox since I was a kid
