Not sure if this is the right spot (mods feel free to move if necessary).
The nurse at my dr's clinic just called to let me know that my rubella immunity is very low, again. I have had to have 2 rubella boosters in the past. The first when I had a full blood test when ttc Nina to check if there was anything I needed to do. The second was when we were ttc Emily. As this bub is a surprise bub, I didn't do any ttc preparations, so didn't know at the time about my low immunity.
My dr is going to do a bit of research with regards to if it's safe for me to have the rubella booster (or any other applicable booster) while I'm pregnant to help this, and in the meantime I have to steer clear of any young, sick children. Yep, easy to do when you have children yourself ... NOT!
Anyway, just wondering if anyone has been in this position. What advice did you receive? Were you able to get any boosters? What would happen to me and/or bub if I was to be around children (ie my own children) if they were to get sick?
