I am looking for some advice/opinions:
I have the fortune of finding a family with chicken pox and I would like my children to be exposed. :oD doing the happy dance for natural immunity AND having homeopathy to assist in the process.
I had chicken pox as a child (oh, about 30+ years ago) and am currently 22 weeks pregnant. Should I take something as a precaution for my unborn baby? I say this because I have had friends having a small chicken pox outbreak with their kids (a couple pox appearing) while their kids went through it. She also had Varicella when she was a child, and wasn't expecting that little outbreak.
I'm anxious to hear some responses in addition to doing my own research. The only problem is, the sites are graphic and it makes me wonder if I really want to expose my kids...CDC shows all kinds of 'scary problems' associated with varicella.
