Pregnant women should be exposed to the chicken pox. Thier immune system is not 100% and could end up in the hospital. No correct doctor should EVER let you have the vaccine if you are pregnant. You can get a titer test to see if you are immune to it.
The vaccine does not stop kids from getting the Chicken Pox. It lessen the degree of spots and itching and duration. All of my nephews and cousin's kids got the vaccine and they all ended up with the pox. Granted it was not as bad as a normal case, however, they did not get the natural immunity that you get from getting a natural case of the pox. Besides before you vaccinate your child you should really read up on it. It is made with the left overs from aborted or miscarried babies.

Once you get chicken pox you can't get it again. Yes a mother who has chicken pox can pass it to her unborn child, it can kill that child if it gets it. If the child has a vaccine for it, what vaccines do anyways is inject the virus into you, so yes probably.

right here in Holland, we've a huge outbreak each and every 12 months or so, LOL. very last 12 months's outbreak became way humorous, DD were given her chicken pox on the first day of summer season-destroy - I KNEW, she'd get them, in person-friendly words did not knew even as - the vaccination is under no circumstances prevalent right here in any respect, human beings particularly deliver their non-contaminated new child on a playdate with contaminated children (observed as chicken Pox social gathering) and desire, that the youngsters get them as youthful as accessible, so that they are finished with it...;-) She became somewhat feverish and cranky for some days, yet i visit in person-friendly words advise menthol-powder - it dries the blisters out, that's, what you want, it helps adverse to the itching and is less costly! the different remedy is to have them swimming contained in the sea - DD did that (we stay 5 minutes faraway from the coastline) and healed merely fantastic. The salty water makes the blisters drying up swifter, too and as she were given the chicken pox contained in the course of a warmth-era, it became an exceedingly good alleviation (warmth makes the itching wayyyy worse). additionally they say, that it is not contageous anymore, once you'll discover the blisters, yet i'm no longer certain about that one.

I don't know the answer concerning the unborn child, but I do know that even if you have had the vaccination, you still can get the chicken pox, and you can get it more than once.

yes, rarely individuals can have chicken pox or varicella after vaccine. No vaccine is 100% effective. If they do get chicken pox after vaccination the disease is likely to be much milder.
Pregnant ladies can pass the virus to their unborn child if they have chicken pox late in pregnancy or in the immediate post-partum period. Newborns can have severe neonatal congenital varicella (with disseminated eruption, pneumonia and seizures). (mortality: 20-30%).

Yes, kids can get chickenpox after vaccination, but it's usually a much milder form of disease. If you're pregnant and get chickenpox, there is a danger of transmitting the virus to the unborn baby, and it can cause severe birth defects or death of the fetus. This is a very small chance if within the first 20 weeks of pregnancy, but much more serious if around the time of delivery.
During pregnancy, you should avoid anyone with chickenpox, and anyone who has been in contact with someone who has chickenpox. There is a medication that can lessen the severity of the disease if there has been contact, and it's safe for the mother and the baby. It's called VZIG - ask your doctor if you need it.
