    Pretty good I'd say, as the others said it's pretty contagious.

    Like Tinkerbell, my DS2 had them at 4months too, I was BFing & he still got a pretty good dose.

    I'm not sure how long it would take to show up, but DS2 got them about 2 weeks after DD1 came down with them & about 1 week after DS1.
    So maybe a few days, maybe a week?...

    Thanks ladies I thought as much but i was kinda fooling myself into thinking he would be ok. Now what to do...
    Its dd's birthday next week and i am betting he will get them just in time for that and to top it off I have my neice here as well. She has had the immunisation but i am betting she will still end up with a mild case. I told my brother that Hamish was still contagious but they did it anyway......So my bet is I will have two toddlers with chicken pox next week...I guess only time will tell
