Sophia has chicken pox :(
 

My poor baby girl woke up this morning covered in chicken pox. :( The DR. was out to see her and said to prepare ourselves because Luca will be next! I don't think I have had them either, so fingers crossed I don't get them! It is gonna be a LONG two weeks or more!

oh no! **hugs** i hope it goes smoothly and not to much of a stress :(

Oh you poor thing Eve - its going to be a tough fortnight for you all! I had my girls immunized so I think Ill get to avoid that one!

Oh no!! Good luck! Hope they're feeling better soon and I hope you don't get it!

oh no :( I hope it's not too terrible!

That sucks!!! I hope You don't get them too. :(

That sucks!! Jordan got them twice so I feel your pain!! :(

Eve, I got the Chicken Pox when I was maybe about 22 years old - so I can understand why you want to avoid them! Mine weren't too bad, but it's just not something you want to be dealing with as an adult!

Oh Eve! I didn't know you hadn't had them yourself. I never had them either, so when my DS got them (20 or more years ago) I was sure I would get them. But I didn't! I must have a natural immunity to them, so I hope that's true for you too!! But my poor DS had them twice - first case was very mild, so he got them a second time.

Good luck with the kiddos, Eve! Hope they feel better soon!

Thanks ladies, she is starting to get covered from head to toe today, poor baby, she is a trooper though!

Oh Eve! I hope they get better soon! I got the Chicken Pox for the first time at 19 - YUK!!! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you that you don't get them too :eek:

I got them when I was 19 as well and it was not fun!!! I hope you all make it through this without too much discomfort!!! I should book Abi in to get her Chicken Pox vaccine - it is the only one she hasnt had!!! Good luck!!

Oh no, Eve!! Good luck! Kiddos are real good at handling them! My first one got them before there were immunizations, but all my others have been protected. Here's hoping you have a good immune system!

I'm sorry to hear she's going through it, especially since you haven't had it. But I'm hoping in a couple years that we find someone nearby who has it, so Jasmine can get it and be immune after that. Just not now, while we have a newborn in the house!! (we're not vaccinating her against this one...just letting nature take its course :D)

Awww...Good luck with them,Eve! But kids can pretty handle with that thing easily..although its very itchy and all..DS got chicken pox last year but thankfully his pedia got him a vaccine that day so its not scattered as it should be..

Take care!

Poor :( I hope they feel better soon, Eve

the doctors are now saying that even with a vaccine, kids are still getting chicken pox, just not as bad. they are most likely going to start giving out a booster vaccination at about 7-10 years old. so.... even if your kids had been vaccinated, they could get it again. i just hope you don't get it! stock up on caladryl and benedryl gel.
