My daughter is three months old today and has the chicken pox. Anybody have their kids at such a young age with them? If so, did he/she get over them ok? Any other complications?

I have already been to the Doctor...she said to just give her Tylenol for fever and Benadryl for the itch. Baby is very healthy so no other issues she told me.

One of my children had the chicken pox at 6 months old. My advice is.... keep in contact with the babies doctor it is very traumatic for a baby so young to get the chicken pox. It could cause all kinds of problems (blindness being one of them)
And whoever says that a child cannot get the chicken pox more than one time really does not know much about them. In MOST cases a child only gets them once but however if a child is very young like yours is the child could get them again. My daughter got them when she was 6 months old and then she got them again when she was 6 years old. usually if they get them twice the second time is severe. When my daughter got them at 6 years old she had them from head to toe they were so bad that they were in her nose and on the edges of her eyelids and even in her ears. Thank god my daughter got over them both times without any permenant complications. Good luck.

annoying to chop up 2 those that stay togethor and incredibly in view which you have touch with the two one in all them, yet i might do my ultimate to chop up them for a week or so. i would not strategies plenty if the toddler have been given hen pox, yet I purely would not prefer a ill newborn if i could desire to help it. a three month previous won't feed or sleep correct jointly as ill, you will get drained and additionally you go with your potential to look after a newborn and a ill newborn! each and all the final!
