Hello,

DD1 got chicken pox when she was 3y. It took 2 weeks for her to get them after being contacted from our friend whose DD had it. DD2 who was 4 or 5m at the time didn't get until 3 weeks after her sister lol..... Arghhhhh I was in 'confinement for nearly 6 weeks because their sores both took nearly 3 weeks to go lol..... I freaked out when DD1 got the blisters because I was really worried about DD2. In the end though DD2 dealt with it better then DD1.

I would agree with those that say.... if your friend didn't hold or wasn't really around bubby then the chances are there but the chance is really small...... If your friend had a little to do with bub, then the chances are greater. In saying that though, if you're breastfeeding, and you've had CP again chances are limited. It will be a waiting game. If bubby gets it, then take bubby to dr. There is no point taking bub to Dr yet as there is nothing they can do to help you. Go if you feel it will make you feel better, but they won't have a lot of help for you.

I really hope it is a positive outcome for you. I will have all of my fingers and toes crossed for you.
