    18 month immunisations and my pregnancy?

    Hi there,
    I don't know if this is a stupid question, but I remember reading somewhere, that it may not be such a great idea for my DS to have his chicken pox vax whilst I am pregnant.
    Is there any real concern??

    Thanks in advance.

    I'm not completely sure Niadla, but if you're in doubt, it's not really a big deal to delay your son's chicken pox vaccination.

    i would delay it if there is any doubt in your mind

    just make sure you speak to gp to put in an approved catch up plan if your son uses day care at all - if you're late, they'll cut your child care benefit...

    Hi Niadla

    I asked about this when I was pregnant, and the nurse said it was fine.

    Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy!
